    CC account not deactivating properly

    I'm going to have to cough to some feckwittery here, I was trying to use a different e-mither address than the one I'd registered CC with. I tried the online help tool which prompted me to check the addresses. Thanks chaps, all is good again now

    CC account not deactivating properly

    I couldn't connect to the chat facility, I sent them a tweet instead but it isn't quick reply. I'll try the chat connection again in the morning. I have the emitter confirming the startup of the account and its taking the tenner a month from my account.

    CC account not deactivating properly

    I'm migrating my CC account from an old MacBook to a new one, I've followed the online guides but it won't let me install now on the new laptop. It is saying my payment plan doesn't have access to photoshop and Lightroom but I took out a 12 month photographers plan in august of this year. Any ideas?

    MotoGP - Silverstone 2018

    I'm retired now, too fat, old and not enough money for racing. I didn't spread the word as I didn't want everyone doing it, I get stuff from sponsors if my picture was printed; everything helps

    its at this point Leon realised he messed up

    modern tyres are ace, ground clearance in now a bigger problem than tyre grip in the middle of a bend, obviously you never have enough grip going in and out of the bends. I miss my big bike :-(

    its at this point Leon realised he messed up

    CoF can be more than 1, its just in many applications it rarely exceeds that. Think of a train on a geared track going up a hill. Because of the interaction of the gears, the CoF will be way more than 1. With race tyres, at macro level, the hot sticky rubber is making a mechanical lock to the...

    Thanks for that Ed, I'm anticipating this being the most used of the lenses I'm planning to buy.

    Nikon D750 & D780

    I've just looked at the Ken Rockwell site and they seem to be reviewed OK there, I take it I can rely on his reviews? I'm aware that the kit doesn't make a good image, although I use Canon DSLRs at work in challenging lighting and conditions, its industrial work so the composition isn't down...

    Nikon D750 & D780

    I've just ordered a d750 body and 50mm prime from Panamoz, can't wait for it to land so I can start playing. Something to get me out of the house. I was planning on picking up a 70-300VR (s/h) and something like a 24-85 VR that will cover me for most things. It is only for my own pleasure so...

    Pensions, what happens when you die?
