No holiday pics :(

Well, me dears, I had expected to be able to load up some photos from our holiday last week during Cavebaby's half term holiday. We had been using Capt Caveman's phonecam as it's a lot smaller and easier to carry compared to the mini-DVD camcorder that I have been using (i know, i know, i be too lazy to carry it round with me, my bad).

Anyhow, to cut a long story short, we went to Alton Towers Theme Park and Water Park, but i can't show any pics, cos when we were at the Theme Park, we all got soaked tra la la on more than a few rides.

When we got home Capt Caveman found that his phone had got soaked as well. Actually it was OK for a couple of days, mostly still working except for a few glitches. Then today it stopped working completely and he had to go and buy another phone for temporary use while the other one was sent for repairs. Also all the stuff on his phone can't be recovered, including the photos. :( Oh well, at least he'll get the original phone back after a week.... i hope.

This made me think..... just as well I didn't bring the camcorder. If that had been soaked and rosak (damaged), I would have been RATHER CROSS.

So next time, my advice is, if you go to Alton Towers, either don't bring anything that will spoil when wet, or don't go on the rides where you will get wet. And there are more than a few of those rides!

In the meantime, i be cheating tra la la to show you some pics of Alton Towers from the inter-web. (as ever, digitally altered to protect the innocent...)
Take care, and don't get wet tra la la
