    WAMT....what annoyed me today!

    I know Watlington seems to be a good place for them, a colleague went there a few months ago...

    Nikon FX lens options

    I suggest the AF-S 24-120 f4 G or the 16-35 f4G. I am not anti-Sigma but I did own a 180/3.5 EX DG Macro but after a firmware update the AF ceased to work (it was a D810 specific issue as the lens still worked on my D500).

    WAMT....what annoyed me today!

    Couple of times the past few weeks I have been bringing the 500/4 into work with me, attached to either Z8 or D500 as we are in a Red Kite Hot Spot. Every single one of those days, not a bird to be seen. I am in work today before driving up the M40 to stay with my mother in North Wales. So...

    Focus - lens and body possibly incompatible?

    Were you focussing the lens at its' widest aperture? I found my 50/1,4G and 85/1.8D truly sucked when I tried to use focus calibration. Sent them to Nikon who said they were ok, and still I was having to apply severe adjustment for the 85. The calibration operates at the widest aperture and...

    South-West England Cheltenham

    I think I know the Pittville Pump Room from Alice Roberts' TV series of important towns, but then again I do get distracted by Alice... The view of the Queen's hotel might be spoiled by my black Golf. Some inspiring ideas so far, thank you.

    South-West England Cheltenham

    Off to Cheltenham this weekend, taking my 92 year old mother for a nice Easter break... never been myself and it's a change from Harrogate... In my 'downtime' (when she is surveying M&S and John Lewis) is there anything to see and photograph in the town centre. I will have my K-1, FA*24/2, FA...

    Fuel is someone extracting the urine

    142,9 for unleaded at Richmond Sainsbury's and I thought I did well to fill the Golf on Saturday at 145.9p.... We can say the Government won't stand in the way of the fuel prices, just imagine all the extra VAT coming in.

    WCMUT....what cheered me up today

    Happened to come across a football match that was being streamed on YouTube and S4C.... I'd forgotten it was the title decider for the Adran Genero Premier ie the Women's Welsh Premier League. Cardiff City have had their name on the trophy ad infinitum; not any more. As a North Walian and a...

    WCMUT....what cheered me up today

    Our company used to give purple ones out at Christmas time, very nutty and delicious. I adore sprouts, and cauliflower cheese.

    WBMT.....What baffled me today

    As a Golf Mk 7 owner, dealing with a swimming pool where the spare wheel goes I can accept this, but at least I know to get rid of the moisture from the windows before setting off...

    Holidays - give me some ideas

    that's good to know, skies overhead are still busy (under the LHR flightpath) and I suspect a problem of lot of people will have is booking their flights and accommodation separately. So, I hope your flights still go ahead.

    Holidays - give me some ideas

    Another option is to fly to Vienna, then train to Bratislava. Thanks to the small disagreement in the Arabian Sea, prices for flights closer to home are shooting up as a lot of people are having to rethink their holiday plans. I do know of some people who've planned flights via Dubai/Doha and...
