Thanks, scoow! Unfortunately it is too late for unthinking dad's film - already been through, but maybe, just maybe the bag was enough. I keep telling him to develop one roll and see, but he's been slow about it - I think discouraged by knowing he probably screwed up his pictures. Maybe this will be a lesson.
