the incipient

Eep.

Also woo, yay, whew and phew, but also hmmmm, particularly regarding the size and partially-decorated nature of our current accommodation. Still, the middle of May is months away.

I was being chivvied and hurried most unaccommodatingly by Nicky when attempting to take this as she'd just run a bath and wanted to get to it before it cooled down (as things tend to fairly easily in the flat at the moment as the heating-pipes have still not been reconnected). It's therefore not quite the effect I was hoping to achieve (and she was holding the magnifying glass in the wrong place and the wrong angle) but it should do the job. It also gave me an excuse to finally get a magnifying-glass, though it will also be handy for inspecting film-negatives when I finally get round to attempting to sort out the big box of old opto-chemical photographic content.
