    Zack Polanski. I'm Sorry!!!

    Well, if that system was in place we wouldn't have Mr Farage, and probably many more.

    Zack Polanski. I'm Sorry!!!

    But this isn't about technicalities is it? Surely, it's about his moral compass, or lack of. Politicians of all persuasions tend to abuse the financial rules far more than the rest of us. This may or may not be due to them having friends in high places, free legal advice from other politicians...

    Buying advice

    Basically, as above. My immediate question is this - why do you need 3 cameras? That budget is really just about adequate for one. You could, perhaps, spend all of the budget on one camera, and once the benefits have been proved perhaps you could get a similar budget for the other two wards...

    Zack Polanski. I'm Sorry!!!

    Well, that would solve the need to refurbish the House of Parliament, there would be nobody available to fill it.

    Good. Hopefully they'll also look into his other financial dealings, including his involvement in Crypto, his "financial advisory service" and all of the millions that went missing when he closed down his Brexit "Party" Company.

    Press photographers - how did they get shots back to the office?

    There was also an early scanner, which cost a fortune and took for ever, basically using the old modem system to transmit the data. The scanner was a drum of sorts, and the technology later morphed into the scanners that produced electronic stencils that were used on duplicating machines (think...

    Amazon scams, any experience ?

    And what would that achieve? I had a similar experience, with a firm I was working with. Order received and despatched, I thought there was something odd about it and did some checking. Spoke to the elderly gentleman whose address it was going to, it turned out that a very nice young lady had...

    Trusting the Reader

    This, My "Favourite" - but perhaps I miss-spell the word - was when an American introduced me as "Garry Edwards, from Wales in England"

    Woo how big

    Perfect for destination weddings? :) From memory, Canon did something similar, over 25 years ago and pre-digital, 1200 mm I think. Advertised constantly in every single photography mag, basically just to boast about their capabilities. One of their reps told me that they only sold a total of...

    Light modifiers user friendly in the wind

    Aptly named, because all that it does is to reduce the effective power:)

    Sit Down To an Evening with the BBC

    I'm currently watching the Snooker, I enjoy it but it makes me feel totally inadequate:) Other than that, I have a near-daily routine, I switch the machine on, scroll through all of the channels and switch it off again. I'm just glad that I don't need to pay for a licence. I do sometimes...

    Another Haul

    I'm no help at all. I support a horse rescue charity, we have a shop, and pics of all photo equipment are sent to me so that I can price them:) The same goes for other specialised items, a bit of knowledge and/or internet research works wonders . . .

    My personal 'lighting tier list' where do you guys stand?

    A lot of this is just personal preference. To me, the first-tier flash lighting is Bron, nothing else comes close, but the prices are beyond the reach of many of us, and I don't like their accessory mounting system. Profoto make good products at a premium price, but (to me) they aren't worth...
