It disappeared to-day in just a few minutes. I had put it down and turned away to make some notes for the photo position at aquatics seating for this evenings finals and not thinking I walked over to another bench and walked back and it was gone!!!!!!!! My own dumb fault, but was distracted due to some officials and they're damn stupidity for a moment. Gone! Damn I don't know whether to cry or try and kick my own ass for being so damn careless and stupid. Sure a hell of a hard way to learn a lesson after all these years of carting gear about the world. One might say it kind of takes the edge off the profit of 6 weeks work! Oh well if I'm meant to get it back I'll get it back, if I'm not, I wont! That's life! However there are 450 photographers keeping an eye for it, so who knows!!!!!!!!!! ted ted ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
