Doesn't seem to work for me unfortunately; I get "Sorry! That promotional code is not valid" :(

Not really we went on an organised trip with "Exodus", a couple of weeks wandering round the highlights of the island with an exceptional guide. We normally use "Explore", but in this case, the Exodus trip included Yala, whereas the Explore one had more beach time, and even more temples. Both...

It would need planning in advance to book a driver, but Yala national park would certainly be on my list of locations to re-visit. If it's of any interest, my own drivel is here on Flickr. Not particularly high class stuff, more (long) a series of snapshots to remind us of a holiday, which my...

Unfortunately some press articles don't do much for the Hen Harrier's conservation effort; e.g. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3076106/Do-gooders-obsessed-increasing-population-avian-predators-letting-killer-birds-terrorise-countryside-attack-pets.html Have a read of the last section...

I'm not going to recommend any in particular, but for anyone with an interest in weather forecasting, have a look here; http://www.greatweather.co.uk/

How about the bladder out of a wine box?

Well here's a strange one.A little while ago, on my Google 4 I had a message saying the update to Android 5 was available. I didn't have time to do it then, but the message then disappeared. When I now check for updates, it stays at 4.4.4 and says phone is up to date. I wonder if they have...

Depends on the model, but Luton Cameras are well known as Olympus repairers

Another ringing endorsement for them. I even remember a few years ago when I became aware that Sandisk were doing a software offer with some of their cards. I only found out right as the offer was closing, so following a phone call from me, a chap from MyMemory even went personally to their...

I was considering a waterproof shoulder bag for a specific trip, but chickened out in the end. The two main contenders were these; http://www.intro2020.co.uk/pages/interceptor.html and http://www.ortlieb.de/_prod.php?lang=en&produkt=digishot In the end I used a normal backpack and a few...

I used a Dryzone 100 when we went to Malta without any issues. Handy as it rained when we got there too :( I also recommend a photographer's waistcoat; I've managed over 5Kg in one on occasion.

I'll second that :)

Might be worth looking at the Naneu Pro Lima in Olive green. Doesn't look particularly like a camera bag, but will hold a decent sized body and about 3 lenses, plus a 7" tablet. http://www.naneubags.com/products-by-series/military-ops/lima

If you are running the same version of Flickr as me and you click on an image in your photo stream, it should open it with various options to the lower right hand side. Click on the little square as below, showing in red in this screenshot; Note that you will need to pick the "Grab The HTML/BB...
