We had a staff function last Friday night - one of our secretaries was retiring.

And there he was, our Factor, with his fancy Sony camera with zoom lens and all manner of our fancy features.

So I thought he would be the very man to take the "team" photogarph.

WRONG !!! It's bloody awful as are the other 40 odd that he took. Zoomed in shots with half the subject's face not in the picture, 90% of them blurred, 10% of them far too dark etc etc.

It gets right up my nose. People pretending to be experts at something and turning out to be as much use as a 38D bra is to Twiggy.

My advice - never trust a man who's trousers always have an immaculate crease, who's shoes are so highly polished you could use them as a shaving mirror and who tucks his tie into his shirt when he's eating.

I should have known better of course, he's English ;).

Ah ! - that's better. Havn't post in this section for waht seems like ages. ;) :)

Perhaps you should have plied him with the free company drinks AFTER he took the pictures.   :) And as for the racism,well-----.Sporrans and dry rot come to mind.  :D

But your post may well have saved this section from Scunner's axe.

Just for the record, the remark about the English was very much tongue in cheek. I know many fabulous English people including many on here :).
