Having just moved to the country, you do realise how dark it is. As there are no street lights, when that sun goes down it’s pretty much pitch dark.
The rather horrendous lighting choices in the house don’t help much either!
Absolutely.
But, for - for the nights when there is no cloud cover, star-gazing, eclipse viewing, and, indeed, night photography - will all offer ample rewards.
Plus, in summer, if you have any sort of a terrace, or area were you can sit outside, - and (and the "and" is important in our isles off the European mainland) a decent summer, you can sit out late into the evening or night, in privacy, and just sip a drink and/or absorb the atmosphere.
Just placed my first order ever on Amazon.
Still no snow here, just rain. Got new boots, need to waterproof them.
Celebrated our Independence Day yesterday by taking a walk and listening to music.
Exciting times, indeed.
Have a great Saturday everyone!
While I use Amazon - usually for books and music I cannot otherwise obtain - personally, I would never buy clothing or footwear without having tried them on in advance.
Wow!
I've been buying stuff from there since 1998.
Sometimes, and lately, I think about and even try to ween myself away from the company and buying stuff. But alas, I've been unsuccessful so far.
Is it price or variety?
Where at all possible, I try to buy from bricks-and-mortar stores, even if that includes asking them to order stuff specifically for me.
Yeah, it's pretty weird it took this long. I've ordered stuff from the internet for who knows how long, it's just that I've never ordered anything from Amazon before. I still like to support brick and mortar stores as much as possible, but a deal is a deal, and if I'm getting something delivered for about 1/10th of the price I'd pay in a store my principles on occasion tend to look the other way.
Ah, price, is the deciding factor. Fair enough.
