Bring on Manchester United!

So today's the day ....

Having failed miserably to convince my wife and 2 children that there is nothing wrong with cameras that you have to load with films and take to get developed, I've decided to buy myself a new DSLR. However, learning how to use it may take a while. Far too many buttons for my liking! So until I work it out, I will have to use my little camera.

But I've decided to join Blipfoto today as a statement of intent, and to prove to my family that I really am going to join in with their passion.

One of my passions is Aldershot Town Football Club, who I have been supporting for over 30 years. Today I queued for 2 hours to pick up my ticket for the 4th round of the Carling Cup where we will play Manchester United. I think the club missed a marketing opportunity - I was sooooo desperate for a cup of tea, they could have charged whatever they wanted! But it's the first time that we've had a team from the mercenary league for such a long time, I think we can be forgiven. Maybe we'll be better organised for the 5th round tie ;-)
