Oct 15: Warm beer?

I've really got all out of sync with PotD. I noticed today that my dates have been wrong all week. Eventually, I traced the cause. I didn't post a picture for last Saturday. Easy to fix, I took quite a few shots over on Caradon Hill last Saturday, they're not on the PC so they must be on the Mac. Except they're not. Nor are they on the CF card, as that's been wiped. Disaster! I have no picture for last Saturday...! As a last resort I downloaded a photo recovery program to see if that could find anything on the card. It was doubtful, as I've been using the card all week, and wipe it after every upload. Well, I was wrong. There are recoverable pictures going back as far as August. Fantastic! But I've run out of time, and still haven't posted yesterday's photo yet. It's on the PC in Sandhurst. I'm in Cornwall with the Mac. So, dates corrected, and today's photo posted, but you'll have to wait 'til Monday for (with a bit of luck) last Saturday's and yesterday's photos. And I've still got a film to develop for a picture a couple of weeks ago. In the meantime, I'll enjoy a nice glass of beer in front of the fire. Normal service will be resumed as soon as possible, as they say.

I was beginning to WONDER, DM . . as you'd said before a PotD was a new pic taken EVERY day . . and it seemed you'd run amuck with the dates . . nice to know you're going to correct it . . I'm still looking for the 25th . . can't have you falling off here now, can we =] (HA!)

Sitting in front of a fire, with a beer and in Cornwall sounds like an excellent place to be.
Lovely golden tones, it's making me a little comfortable and sleepy.

LOL at Ray.

Beer? I thought you had set fire to one of those nutholders you put out for the birds. Not a normal activity I know, but on this project that doesn't matter!
It seems your PotD is quite complicated. Go for PaD - its much simpler ;-)

Who knew you could make beer look more yummy... Warm, amber glow behind the ice cold taste.. Sounds like a perfect weekend.

Okay. I'd rather have wine.. but.. um.. it LOOKS good.. :D

Glad you got the pics back! That's great! Those data recovery programs are fantastic aren't they? Which one did you end up getting? This photo is making me all warm and fuzzy!
