    Notice Some big changes coming to TP

    Interesting and cheap day out in London - Suggestions please...

    Provided you book in advance the Sky Garden (Walkie Talkie building) is worth seeing. Overlook the Thames, Tower Bridge, HMS Belfast at the front and Gerkin etc at the rear. South bank skate park usually has plenty of action. If the kids are into skate-boarding they can join in.

    Carrying lots of Wildlife Equipment

    Beginner Flicker Sharing Question

    You may find the size of the photograph is too large. Normally find 1024 or 900 longest side adequate. Can also try reducing quality instead 240 dpi or lower, down to 72.

    More untaxed vehicles since the tax disc was abolished

    Just went into website and confirmed taxing for 12 months. Answer came back as vehicle now taxed. What a waste of time but I suppose it ties up with insurance and takes the car off the ANPR list of untaxed/uninsured vehicles.

Very efficient service in the summer but had plenty of cancellations in winter months with high tides, high winds and torn...

    Screen calibration and the rest of the world.

The only problems, which I hope you don't mind being pointed out, is the ear tips fading into the background and on the left side of the right ear there is brown hair which looks unattached. I believe the...
