About a week ago, I noticed a macro lens sitting on Mr Crumpet’s desk, and assumed that we’d borrowed it from Steve again. When I showed Mr C the picture above, he mentioned that *coughhedidn’tborrowthatlenscough*, and I was stunned into silence for a moment, caught somewhere between a sense of delight and a sense of horror at how much money he’d just spent.
This morning, while discussing how little money we have, I mentioned the recent purchase of the macro lens again.
And I found out that Mr C *coughboughtthelensbackinMarchcough* and was PRETENDING ALL THIS TIME that it was Steve’s lens… he’s even been loaning it to Steve for extended periods so that I wouldn’t catch on that it was ours and get angry with him!

That sneaky sunova. I never knew why he kept insisting that I loaned the macro lens but never the larger zoomage.
P.S. Thanks for letting me borrow your wide-angle Paul.
