Valentine's Day Gift
Posted By: Frogfish, 02-10-2011, 01:01 PM

So as usual when this time of year comes around I'm at a total loss as to what to give (all that pressure from the media has me a quivering wreck in case I buy / do the wrong thing) !

This year I'm going with a Chinese Calligraphy set (we had fun trying to use traditional brushes and copy the writing of yore at a party last week) and a 16x12 framed photo of my wife that I took two days ago (with the 43 Ltd) and that she hasn't seen yet (the actual print has a little more of the right side trimmed off). It will be ready 15.30 on the 13th - I hope she likes it !

n.b. Chinese people (or maybe most Oriental people ?) love shots of themselves - hence it's not one of me !

And more importantly - How did she like the present?

Manishved : Ha ha - actually she knows I'm after the 60-250 or *300 next (I dropped a few more hints tonight - just a few weeks to go to get my grubby paws on one of them) !

UpNorth : Yes, she liked it a lot .. and the calligraphy set ... and the dinner. I have to impress her to earn sympathy & compassion for my LBA !
