If it was my choice it would be nothing, but other half says we have to buy presents, total bill this year is £180 thats for 7 *** and 8 bottles of wine for the grown ups. We dont buy each other anything for xmas although g/f normally gets me a CD or something small as its my birthday on xmas day.

Gave up a year ago just went cold turkey from 20 a day I found it fairly easy to be honest no patches, gum etc.... just will power. Was a health thing for me was smoking golden virgina which i got from a friend who travels to Gibraltar once a week so was costing me peanuts money wise. I...

I agree with that great picture :thumbs:

Got a friend at work who has a Nikon D70 the sensor needs cleaning as she can spot the dust on the pictures Also one of the Nikon lens is making a abnormal noise when focussing so ideally the same place would be able to look at that aswell. Any recommendations ideally near East...

Thanks for that been looking for some guidance on this subject after all my over exposed daytime long exposure shots at the w/e.

I was just going to say something along those lines. PTS only qualifies you to walk within 3m of the line, whilst doing so you are not allowed to carry out any work. As 48thEagle says you need a COSS or you can do another course and get IWA (individual working alone), even then I think you...

These are good as well http://www.interparcel.com/ sent a 15kg parcel on a 2 day delivery it was only £6.99 + vat online tracking and proof of delivery. They are a broker and used UPS for my parcel but use others. They also collect the parcel from work or home. No affliation just found them...

I have been hunting for a D80, I think the price you mention is abit steep. I have seen one on another forum for £300 but the seller did not have a long trading record haf only sold one item, which I was abit nervous about so I stayed away. Gutted I did not get the jessops deal at xmas :bang:

Thanks for those pics, that has just helped make up my mind on a few things i was mulling over with regard to camera, lenses, etc.....

Dont worry your not pushing the Nikon (well not to much, lol) merely suggesting I try it as well which is a valid point. Will give it ago next w/e, will let you guys know how I get on.

Thanks for all the assistance guys, gonna have a think. Already had a play with the Canon, so think I am gonna take a trip to Grays and have a decent play with the Nikon. Its only a short train journey away dont want to spend x amount to discover I have made the wrong decision :eek:

Thanks Richard I found one for 399 with 7000 actuations or £425 with 900 actuations but then with the lenses it would leave the budget a bit short as you quite rightly say. Gonna have to have a think, weigh up the pros and cons, got more money just was unsure about spending to much at such an...
