  • Sent To Coventry – Monday 11th May 2026

    So it’s been a month since I was (voluntarily) sent to Coventry but I’ve been a busy boy so, a month later, this is just about the first chance I’ve had (the desire) to review the day. I was in Coventry as I had run an errand for my wife and found myself with an…

  • British Superbikes, Oulton Park, Bank Holiday Monday 4th May 2026.

    Hot off the heels of the London Marathon the early May Bank Holiday Monday saw me heading to Cheshire with my youngest daughter to Oulton Park to watch the opening round of the British Superbikes Championships. Having been gifted the admission ticket the primary intention was to go along and enjoy the day, but inevitably…

  • The 2026 London Marathon

    Once upon a time when I maintained a blog about running I would be posting about how I would have run the latest instalment of the London Marathon, or any other 26.2 mile race in this country or further afield. Times have changed, however, although I did manage to run two marathons last year, partly…

  • #15 Panasonic Lumix G-Vario 100-300mm f/4.0-5.6 II – Encore

    As mentioned at the end of the last post, the Random Lens Generator randomly chose the exact same combination as the last time, so once again I was taking out the slightly odd pairing of the Panasonic GX90 with the Lumix G-Vario 100-300mm f/4.0-5.6 II. As the past walk was a rushed affair, it was…

  • #14 Panasonic Lumix G-Vario 100-300mm f/4.0-5.6 II

    I’m beginning to think the Random Lens Generator is trolling me with its selections. After pairing my smallest zoom lens – the tiny 12-32mm with perhaps the largest micro 4/3s camera the Panasonic G9 – this time it flipped the script pairing the much smaller rangefinder style Panasonic GX9 with the largest 4/3s lens I…

  • #13 Lumix G Vario 12-32 F/3.5-5.6

    Having tweaked the random camera generator to give equal weighting to my Panasonic cameras compared with their Sony counterparts, the Panasonic G9 was paired with the Lumix G Vario 12-32 F/3.5-5.6. This diminutive lens, the equivalent of a 24-64 on a full frame lens, came bundled with my GX9 purchase late last year, its price…

  • Camera Review – OM System Tough TG-7

    The OM System Tough TG-7 was not my first foray into the world of waterproof, dustproof, and shockproof cameras. Back in February 2010 I picked up the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FT1 (the DMC-TS1 outside of Europe). At the time my job saw me travelling all over the world with the F1 circus, something I had first…

  • Panasonic G9 – First Impressions Review

    I think it’s fair to say that when I began my latest round of camera gear acquisition around two years ago a micro 4/3s camera was not on my radar. In fact if I was totally honest I think I would have had little or no idea what a micro 4/3s camera was. Since I…
