Cumbernauld is 3 hours away from Inverness on a main trunk road for goodness sake!

Watching parcels from HK is fun but they always falter at the last hurdle, I guess it's because it's mostly uphill ;)
 
I've just realised looking at that, the last line 04:18 was showing last night! hours before it could have been 'in transit'
 
transit: type of van
in transit: in the van

no statement about movement! :naughty:
 
:thinking: Why did it have a visit to East Midlands Airport, off to Paris, then back to EMA?
 
I don't think it did mini, it was just registered there, probably a customs thing.

:LOL:@mmcp42 yer probaby right!

It's posts like this that get me in trouble for using the internet at work:naughty:... now I've got to clean my lunch off my monitor:D

Not Tum-te-tum any longer, more Tum-te-wooooot! :D
 
does one have a new toy to play with?
 
One has a very big one ma :)
 
aha some glass from a well-known foundry?(y)
 
Whoever said it weighed a ton wasn't lying :)
 
ok ok, it's the Sigma 1200mm f2.8 :D


ok ok so it's not! it's the bigma which leads me to a question, for anyone who owns or has used one, the zoom ring is stiff (I knew it would be from reviews) but by accident last night I found that I can push pull the extending part of the lens much more easily, effectively making it a push pull zoom but I don't want to damage the lens. Is it ok do you think to zoom that way?

Not sure, but I wouldnt think thats the way to go.

I think the zoom ring will loosen up with use.
