Mixing work and pleasure

I learnt an important lesson today - not to mix work with my leisure pursuits! Having been asked to be the "official photographer" at a works conference.

Now I love photography, but conferences are deathly boring, and the boredom is only superceded by taking the same pictures of people standing up in front of other people and talking or sitting down and listening to speakers. Boring boring boring......

So next time someone goes looking for a volunteer photographer I'll have to say that my camera is in for repairs, and in the meantime I need to get out to a nature reserve and take some more interesting pictures.

I'm sure that at least they gave you a fancy new camera for the task, which they allowed you to keep as a goodwill gesture?
Didn't they?

Oh I wish.... Not wanting to give any names away, but the largest insurer in the UK didn't get that way by giving stuff away!!!
