Good for you!

'Good enough' is not an expression I actually use, I prefer 'beyond clever'.

I'm not sure what you mean by this.......maybe you can tell me off-line.

No, I don't miss darkroom work either. Sheer mindless drudgery - and I was
very good at it. Problem for me is I cannot do with digital what I do
everyday with film - B&W to be precise.....and is why I am preoccupied with
finding enough wonga to acquire a lifetime stash of Pan F+ before the bean

Anyone out there with a fridge full of Pan F+ going spare, let me know:)
