Funny Those Doctors

So, after a bad night and no sleep, I made an emergency appointment to see my doctor. I got to the surgery and waited in the reception until called into his private room. So, after a few minutes of discussions as to how I felt etc I asked him what he thought! He said, could you make sure you leave me one of your Nikon camera's. So, after we laughed and I left the room, I thought, blimey, is that it, is it time to decide who is to have my camera's, the cheeky monkey. Anyway, I will obviously be taking no notice of him and steam onwards regardless.. I have loads of photo editing to do tonight, so, I am going to be busy. I found some more old Thin Lizzy and Pink Floyd shots from the late 70's, so, I will try and scan them tonight as well. Mind you, I am tired so, may have an early night and get on them tomorrow. Bloody doctors !!

Tollins on Chorleywood Common

I had no idea what a Tollin was until late last week. My friend and journalist Jill Visser emailed me and told me all about them. I was reading the email and it explained that Tollins are little people who live under the wooded Common in Chorleywood Hertfordshire, England. I carried on reading the email and it explained that they were all real and quite magical. I then stopped and looked at my phone again, where the email was and re read it. I thought for a moment I was going mental. Little people who live under the common!!! Obviously they cannot be real, I am such an idiot. For a split second I thought they could be and I didn't understand how I had never heard about them before. So, a few days later, I went with Jill and photographed Tollins on the common.

They were as described, little people who do in fact live under the common. There is a book out now telling us all about them. It is published by Harper Collins.
