Ah looky...another message from "Meta Ai" informing that this page is due to be shut down unless I click that link.

Not born yesterday, done my bit for catching low life scammers, liars and cheats but this one, so dumb it's laughable!

Keeps on coming though so I guess there is some equity somewhere in it for them so before we block them we do leave notices all over their so called page to inform the less savvy...

It's been quite a while since the last one, I bet there will be more now

Monday Mumble #030: Dreams and integrity

Strange dreams, about a future, but as expected now one lot of children have gone back to school and another bock to their chambers things have dropped off. We've been getting ready for that.

Future, well October sees us enter our fifteenth year of business, that's a long time. As I said previously, done throughout despite which will always be the way but yes, what comes next is under consideration always. There's a bit of a dream. ;-)

For now, just awaiting our Kodak invoice so we can stock up there, the main distributor, the crafty one is digging in with Eastman so we're monitoring that situation too.

Sorry ADOX, we know what we want, another pallet of stuff but have to watch the overdraft so you slipped back again I'm afraid. Credit terms would put an end to that knowing that we would never drop you in it like a certain London business did when it folded a few years back. Integrity is vital to us as you know.

So, we'll actually take another look at that once we've settled with Kodak, but we're also wanting to maintain momentum with Optik Oldschool and their brave venture. Great to work with too.

Almost make me feel like, and I shall, tell you which of our suppliers give us the smiles when we deal with them, firstly the guys at Vintage Visual (AGO), great machine and great fun to work with, as of course are our dear mates at Bellini Foto we'll try to meet with them again in 2027. JOBO, a lovely family, very positive people, love 'em! Also Yvonne in Oz who sorts out our Shanghai and Lucky products and gives us such a nice deal.

As Filippo of BelliniFoto said to a big company trying to poach them with an exclusivity contract one year..."No thanks. We stay with the people who believed in us from the beginning" Integrity...it's vital to us.

Website now stable, we have a new chap looking at the coding update required for the app which is switched off for now. More layers of security being implemented, at no time however, has any data been at risk, we know that and trust the guys at the server implicitly. Integrity is vital to us you see!

Lucky C400...as you can see it's now en route, we literally paid that invoice within minutes of receiving it so the wait is nearly over, sorry about it but that's how things can happen when dealing internationally.

As soon as it arrives orders will be dispatched as a matter of priority so you'll learn abut it before I swill! That is beacause; Integrity is, vital to us!!

Finally, a thank you to the nice people who've left us good feedback, great reviews and more important to us, product reviews...words from newbies tells us how helpful folk find those.

So, again I say: Life eh....what can you do? :-)

I should really get this listed....

Made for half frame cameras and I guess great if you want to test a camera with just 18 shots per roll

A panel of three vistas of Vesuvius over dock in Napoli....I made these lttle studies at different times of the day some years ago on a Baby Rollieflex using Efke 127 film.

Rotten scans from back in the day but I shall now look to properly rescanning this lovely memory

Before the internet some claim that a cause of stupidity was lack of access to information remember?

We now know it wasn't that. Here's an example of what some low life out there do when they target a small business.

Wasted time all round as this lot will just get deleted.
