As I stated earlier ---The aircon on my Jeep Grand Cherokee is still working perfectly Iyr on. Not that I know much about aircon but they gave me a computer printout on the system status at the time and a full guarantee. Like you I was initially a bit concerned----but thy could not have been...

Aircon still working fine after 1yr. They give a guarantee with it too.I will certainly use them again when the wifes car needs doing.

Last time my aircon needed gassing I got Kwikfit to do it------only £35Brilliant.:thumbs:

Caught George Thorogood and the Destroyers at Bristol Colston Hall last weekend.If you get a chance to see them near you sell the wife and go.100mph full on blues rock with some of the best slide playing you will ever see.The guy is a great showman too.:thumbs::thumbs::thumbs:

The first time ever that I have been glad to see a team relegated. I am fed up to the back teeth hearing how Toon fans are "Special"--the best in the land etc etc. They are no different to other fans----They just moan more.Sorry Toon----you got what you deserved this season.:wave::wave:

Not at all-----I am still happy to snap away when the opportunity arises and I am glad that I do. Some great memories are captured as a result. However during that process I still keep an eye out for any decent shots. I have managed to get some great natural portraits when subjects have been...

Completely agree.!7mm/18mm + lenses are usually more than adequate for landscape.I have a Sigma 10-20mm which I use almost exclusively for getting up really close to subjects when the lens comes into its own.

The Oly uses a "crop"sensor.What you are effectively seeing is a 50% crop from a F/F 300mm image---Hence the 600mm equivalent. The system should work fine for your stated preferences and will give you decent quality at a budget price.Having said that though most of the birders I know use Canon...

There are I think two sides to this particular coin.The first is technical ability with the equipment at ones disposal.This is relatively easy to acquire.The second of course is creative ability.I suspect that the majority of (but not all)toggers go with the flow in as much as they set up the...

All of the above advice is good.Another really useful resource is your camera manual.Read it,then read it again and again.The first thing you need to understand is the relationship between Aperture (Av), shutterspeed (Tv) and ISO.Pretty much everything depends and flows from that holy...

Nowadays we live in a Digital age and the WWW is a reality.Quite naturally we now have Digital cameras that integrate and maximise the use of current communication systems and techniques.Digi makes learning much easier for newbies--and thats no bad thing---the more the merrier.This is all...

Steely Dan at the NEC-----Just awesome ! Joe Bonamassa at the Cheese and Grain last year. Hes never going to play small gigs like that again. Jackson Browne---Colston Hall last month----A perfect night. Deep Purple----Albert Hall 1972-------I can still remember it---Just after "In Rock...

b*****d-------Seriously good work------Congrats :clap::clap::clap:

Oh the forgotten joy of Velvia. For me the biggest problem with Digital is getting the printing right.I have got some great stuff on disc--but when I want to print a copy it takes several goes to get it anywhere near decent.However being a naturally lazy bugger --the immediacy of Digital is a...

1/ Range Rover Vogue. 2/Maserati Quattroporte. 3/Fiat 500 Abarth. 4/Audi A4 RS Avant. 5/Jaguar XK 150 convertible. That 5 cover the bases for me.
