Finally I did it. I stopped shooting large format many years ago. And today (Aug 30) I did it and I did it my way. I started loading film and found that there was already film in the filmholders. It must have been put there at least 5 years ago. The film has expired in 2007. I took a picture. Mixed chemicals (found some leftovers in the basement). As I used to do in the past, I did not measure - 1: 5 or 1:10 dilution for 12-years old Kodak HC-110 developer, who cares. (I look at the color of the solution. It is like single malt. Original Glenmorangie color is fine, Talisker color - developer is either too thick or too old). I never measure temperature (I found three unpacked thermometers - looks like I had made attempts to change my habits in the past). Developed the film and found that it was exposed some time ago (some dry grass - what for?), before I made my shot today. In the end it all worked out perfectly well.
