Re: Why in camera?

I used to buy B&W film in bulk and load my own cannisters. I has thousands of negatives, lots of contact sheets, but not many prints. When I left home and moved from the UK to the US, I left everything nicely boxed at my parent's house. About fifteen years later, they moved - they told me not to worry, they'd saved all my photos. By then, I was in a house, with lots of room, no plans to keep moving around, so I planned to collect them all and start going through the negatives. On my next visit, I asked for the box and was given one much smaller than I remembered. I opened it up and found they had saved my photos, and contact sheets - but they'd thrown away all the negatives!
