Every now and again a cloud of excitement lingers above my place of work when the news that someone well known will be in the building.

Today was the turn of Connie Fisher. She won “How Do You Solve A Problem Like Maria?” on the telly a couple of years back. She’s up in Aberdeen starring in the the Sound of Music at His Majesty’s Theatre for the next couple of weeks.

Pictured with her is my colleague Martin who conducted the interview. I was taking the photo (I believe that’s the rules of a taking a photo every day, I MUST take the photo).

I didn’t get my photo taken with her as, well, erm, despite there being an air of excitement about the place, I didn’t know who she was, much to my father in-laws disgust.

I’m told she’s mildly famous.

This photo is part of my “a photograph every day” challenge. There’s a new photo every day over on my Blipfoto and Flickr profiles, with the best of these photos being added to this blog.

Recently I’ve noticed quite a few people doing a task that I tried about 4 years ago. To take a photo every day. It doesn’t have to be a good photo or an arty photo, just something to show what I did that day.

I lasted a few months last time. This time I’m going to try a year.

I’m using blipfoto.com, a website where I can only upload one photo a day. My profile is blipfoto.com/drl

Lets see how I get on. I won’t promise anything.
