Mckun left a comment earlier today, as follows:

"No new photos yet,david,Haahaa.
Maybe your want to give us a surprise."

And I wish I could say yes, but the reason I haven't been posting is that a) I've really been struggling to get over this cold, and b) we've had a really busy week with clients, presentations, meetings, and so on. I'm also frantically trying to get the latest tutorial finished, but as my head feels as though it's full of cotton wool and I can barely string a simple sentence together, it's not going as well as I would have hoped. Wish me luck.

Anyway, on the basis that you'll probably all think I've dropped dead if I don't post something soon, I thought I'd put this one up. I probably won't post anything tomorrow, as finishing the tutorial is now my #1 priority, but I'll try and get something new up soon.

A nice irony in this post considering the week you've had! It's a great shot, I dont get back over the the north west much these days, but this brings back some great seaside memories. Cheers.
All the best. (and take it easy!)
