and Geoff… Give us a skype when you get the chance, eh?

So my first night in Mexico alone passed without incident. I was back from work well late in the evening because I had to finish off the political campaign propaganda and we were waiting on the scanning company to provide us with the pictures from the photoshoot in 3m x 2m format (300dpi, about 500 meg each, 1 per CD…). They wanted to charge us US$300 per photo but when we told them we’d do it ourselves the price fell to 3 dollars. Makes you wonder… Anyroad, I tried loading it into my computer and it more or less glared narkily at me and then disappeared into a desert-like heat haze. Even the G5 mac was struggling with that filesize. Anyway it’s done. They’re happy and it’s my first successful foray into Mexican graphic design. Yay! If he gets the candidateship there’ll be a web site in the offing too…

On Tuesday we managed 4 episodes of Lost in a row. I was chomping at the bit to watch some more episodes last night, but since Sita wasn’t around and this is a voyage for the pair of us, I made do with the methadone equivalent of watching Episode 8 with the Commentary on, the English bloke from Driveshaft and one of the writers rambling away. Quite entertaining but I still need a real Lost hit… and I’ve seen all my Phoenix Nights series one episodes too. Might have to get UK Novaing and see how Flash is doing on Deal or No Deal.

Today it’s going to be Camino Real research, accessibilityfying my web design site and that’s about it. If Jose’s feeling better there’s a chance we’ll go off filming, though Sita’s got my (still) camera. She’ll get better usage out of it that I would. One of these days I want to spend a while in Tequila taking B&W shots of agave fields. I’ve a feeling it will come to pass…
