I owned a Pentax Spotmatic F bought from the shop on Trafalgar Square then. But it might also have been a Minolta SRT 101 that my Godfather had lent me. He had lenses that covered wider and longer FL than my own and I was travelling with him. Lobsters in your backyard ! As soon as Ryanair operates again I?ll be there :-) Thanks again Amities Philippe > Le 12 mai 2020 ? 13:37, Douglas Barry <imra at iol.ie> a ?crit : > > Nice one, Philippe, what camera did you use? > > I was in Spain in '76 (ok Catalunya) in Arenys de Mar just north of > Barcelona and I'd almost swear you saw this sort of sight there too. > However, in Ireland, in fishing ports like Schull, it seemed to be the men > doing net repairing.
