Nifty fifty

I've read a lot about this lens (Canon 50mm f/1.8) so today I went into town and got myself one. John Lewis and Jessops where charging £99 but I got it for £88.99 in Jacobs Digital so the spare £10 will go into the kitty for my next lens. I tried to get one a few weeks ago but they'd sold out and the young woman who served me this morning said they sell out quickly and that it had only come in this morning so I was meant to have it.

I've had to put back sending my 2nd assignment until January. I was way behind anyway because of having a new kitchen fitted but in the early hours of last Saturday (21st) my Mum was rushed into hospital with pneumonia and fluid on the lung. The past week has revolved around hospital visiting so any thoughts of photography have gone out the window. Thankfully she is recovering well and it looks as if she will be home early next week.
