All the seething inaction from Inveresk on the 7th of April in seven images.
A loaf of white bread I made at home, with a couple of slices already
taken by my wife. She left the heel for me. Sony A7II with Zeiss Sonnar

A non-working 1976 Hamilton Masterpiece watch that I'm trying to repair.
It was a presentation watch from Pacific Gas and Electric to a member of
my wife's extended family that year. When he died, his wife got my
wife's uncle to arrange his burial over here in Ireland and gave him the
watch as a memento. I've had it for many years on a to-do list, but with
CoVid decided it was one of the jobs to-actually-do. When I glued the
nut on, I thought - misled by the internet - that it was a stuck screw
back, but it transpired to be a monocoque one with movement access
through the watch front once the glass is removed. Am I going to buy the
specialist crystal remover claw? Probably not... Fuji X100s

The cat thinks I made this just for her. It's actually a raised bed for
my wife's vegetable gardening. Fuji X100S

Placename sign with more modern Irish language script. Monkstown is full
of names that echo London's Belgravia as the same families owned land on
both sides of the Irish Sea. Fuji X100S

Empty Monkstown Road with just myself. I shivered just as the shutter
clicked. It increased my admiration of the sitters for the early
photographers with their lengthy exposure times. Fuji X100S
