Ice-Fight!

Last night Boet, Hans & I went to Nijmegen to see an Ice Hockey match
(Nijmegen vs Amsterdam).
A lot of fun!
Trying to take pictures of these guys whizzing up and down the ice is
neigh-on impossible!
Still trawling through a couple of hundred shots to find the one of two
reasonable ones.

Oh Viewty, You Beauty!

Look what Santa's little helper brought to my door today!
Better late than never.
It's beautifully packaged, tres chic.
Thank you LG Nederland, I'll get onto configuring the Email etc tomorrow,
stuff to do tonight, though the internet connection worked right out of the
box.
So far very impressed, touch screen worked great using fingers and thumbs,
there's a satisfying little "buzz" when you "press" a key, and everything's
in a pretty logical order in the menu's.
One of the first things I tried was the 120 fps slow-motion film function
(it records straight to DivX which is great too) and the result was amazing!
I'll get some footage on Moblog asp.
I'm off to a darkened room now for a little play, 'scuse me.

Santa visited our house and brought us lots of lovely things!
We must've all been very, very good all year!

Tough horses!

(viewed 868 times)
And very friendly.
They're virtually wild, no contact with humans other than herding them about. Out there in all weathers.
I think they may have been hungry, what with all the grass covered in frost.
Next time I'll go with a pocket full of carrots or something.
Very inquisitive, if a little shy and jumpy.
