Bike is fixed and going like a dream - but weather is shitty.
Nope, the photos weren't even fun. Had to wait outside on a rainy day. On arrival the previous client was still there and had to change either in front of me and the bloke or in front of the photographer due to no changing rooms (poor girl). The bloke had to change in front of the makeup lady, I was luckily wearing the top I ended up wearing. No advice on what outfit to wear or even shots in different outfits, despite being advised to bring a selection, no advice on what color makeup or how to wear hair - in fact she asked me how I normally wear my hair and makeup. The bloke was pretty well ignored until I asked that his hair be done. No conversation, music, reading material. The photographer didn't manage to get a nice smile out of the bloke (although he takes some of that blame himself). Pressure to buy on the spot then the makeup was not removed (I was advised on request to go home and wash it off) despite assurance that it would be since they advised the makeup was not suitable for day wear - consequently our plans to go to the ABC open day had to be cancelled so I could go home and wash the stuff off. We were not happy chappies
35kg lost. (November 2005 - October 2006)
15kg gained again (as at October 2010).
Back to the drawing board - Let's do this thing!
