I found some 35mm film in a box in the garage recently, but don't know what to do with it--can't find my camera!Thanks Mitch, should be OK, but 92 sounds better!I bought a new compact camera a couple of weeks back, but they're still out of stock

Seeing as you're in Australia, the pics would be right-side-up for us folks in the Northern HemisphereNice
But no good for me. I would have to turn it upside down to use with my good hand
Hope it gets there soon.
After getting flooded out of my apartment in 1993, I made sure to buy a house that was up the hill. The only way I'll get flooded again is if we have a mud/rock slide and I wind up back in the river bottomAll over Steve, and there is more rain to come. In Sheffield, the river is over its banks, with flood barriers in place, and there's been some already in Leeds. I'm on a hill, and a long way from the nearest river![]()
What's that underneath your '18 Jer?Speaking of rain-

Yeah, we don't get it too bad here, compared to some folks Bob, just now and again. We get more mediocre weather than spectacular weather!Thanks Jack.
It seems all the hurricanes and ocean storms are brushing us.
That's cool Vince, I miss the plastic cans it came in, useful for all sorts of thingsI found some 35mm film in a box in the garage recently, but don't know what to do with it--can't find my camera!

Yikes!After getting flooded out of my apartment in 1993, I made sure to buy a house that was up the hill. The only way I'll get flooded again is if we have a mud/rock slide and I wind up back in the river bottom
We've had the opposite problem this summer. It's been dry, dry, dry. Your pics make me hesitant to wish for rain. It would be all too like Missouri to swing completely the other way![]()
That's one of the coolest pictures I've ever seen.
Looks yummy, great picture.

I agree with Rick. ...but have a diamond flattening stone.![]()
Anyone have any tips on cleaning this old Arkansas stone (may be unimportant)? The previous owner clearly ignored the advice to clean it after each use, and it might have been in the pouch for decades. Mr Barnes recommends cleaning it with a little honing oil, but that ain't working!I clean my ceramics with scouring clean, but don't want to clog up the stone
