I’ve been reading up a lot on the Fujifilm X100, X-Pro 1 and Sony Nex 7, but nothing beats taking the cameras out for the weekend and putting it through the places. Not that I had kakis (that means ‘buddies’
Hannah has been with her nursery school for a full one term of 10 weeks now. The both of us decided it was about time to speak to her teachers and see how she’s been in school. We do get
