So what are you having?

That is the first question that people ask you when you announce that you are having a baby. That or “Do you know what you’re having having?”
I especially like the second question as it implies that I might be the sort of person that finds out the sex of my future child but decides to keep it a secret…..for some reason.
I’ve since realised that “So do you know what you’re having yet?” Is actually just one of those automated questions like “How are you today?” People don’t REALLY care that much if your child is going to be a boy or a girl, it doesn’t really impact their lives too much unless they have a cupboard full of unworn pink newborn outfits they are looking to offload.

This phrase terrifies me as it should any expectant father regardless of income. It’s a sign of things to come. If one were to regard Marijuana as a gateway drug then Harrods isn’t exactly a gateway shop.
You might consider a gateway buggy shop something like Mothercare, Kiddiecare or ToysRUs.

This last week I have been in attendance and speaking at The Societies photography convention here in London which is always a highlight in my calendar. Not only do I get to meet up with some old friends but there’s a huge trade show which gives me the chance to check out the latest gear and products.
As we have just opened up a new studio our walls are still very plain so we were looking for some interesting wall products amounts other things. However, one thing that really consumed my time was the hunt for a new camera.
