....drop it 60ft down a steep hill at Steel Rigg. I just sat and watched it tumble end over end out of sight. Quite funny now really, it's boxed and off to the repairer's tomorrow. Lisa.

Your decimal point must have fallen off.

Is your wide angle now a bent angle? Hope it doesn't cost you too much to get it straight again.

It could have been a lot worse, you may have gone over with it! Then it would have been Lisabd with a limp taking bent photos.

Yeah - that'll teach me to leave my open back pack near the edge of a rock.

Worst I came off with was a sunburnt chin after going to the Farne Islands - it was bl**dy hot, the poor birds were all panting away. I must have sweated off the factor 30. Lisa.

I dropped a lens at the top of Ben Nevis and went running after it

Yes about 50ft to the left !
Wasn't any point trying to catch up with it and I would have had to leave all my other stuff that I had already set up on it's own. Lisa.

That's good. I got my lens and camera replaced after I tried washing them in a stream
