...for all your lovely posts yesterday. It's so reassuring to see I'm not the only one with recurring dreams. Loosing teeth and love. I'm sure a psychologist could have a field day with us! Thankfully my anxiety has gone after a lovely night's sleep last night, combined with sweet dreams.
An update too on the polaroid situation: I found a shop that sells film, but when I went back to get a pack the man had sold out! I can't find any anywhere else, and the only film I can find on Ebay is eye-wateringly expensive. So today I have been nursing a broken heart with some free software called Poladroid. After dowloading it, you can turn any digital photo into a virtual polaroid. I am personally at odds with this, as it takes away the fun, spontaneity and whole ethos of polaroids, but at the moment it's the only way I can get close to polaroids, and it's fun watching digital photos turn into digital polaroids.
I went from this:

Fun, and pretty results, but I do promise to get some proper film soon!

hey love, thanks for the bike-lock suggestions! (: and I'm sorry you didn;t manage to get your film! but poladroid is a pretty amazing programme isn't it? good enough to tide you through until you finally hunt down those elusive polariod films (: xx
There is something so special about polariod pictures, what type of film is it you are actually trying to track down - just out of interest?
Another cold and wet days in the deen. You got to love the scottish summer!

Poladroid is much fun - I have been busy poladroid-ing lots of other photos!
Lyndsay - 600 film. It's very elusive! Aah, good old Aberdeen weather. It's sunny here, but it doesn't take any character to love the sunshine. And Lyndsay - I think you should definitely get a blog! It would be the best! xx
I use that Polaroid-maker, too! It's so much fun. Love your pola! :)
