TBH someone driving for 4 months isn't ready for the road...!
Why not learn now how to drive properly now in a safe proper environment ? Everyone should learn how to drive properly, learn what cars are capable of and learn what happens if things go wrong. Winter training, skid training should...
Ohhhhh yes....
Been out Burblin'. by evil_giraffes_rule, on Flickr
Hilarious levels of grip ! Going past people on bypasses in the snow lane .. everyone else in the semi-clear inside lane at about 20mph .. me at full chat. Properly amusing !
Did get held up by a couple of Clios...
Just been for a wander about with sillywoman ... there's nothing about. Few cars, few people walking about but generally all is quiet !! Left at half 9, got home about 11 !
Wanted to try some flash stuff out at the church, but didn't really go to plan. There was enough light about anyway...
I've a £15 Hama one .. pick one from here..
If it's really useful or you find you have to upgrade, £15 isn't even a round at the pub... use this one as a spare/backup or flash holder ?
Mine holds my 7D (1.3kg with kit lens IIRC) quite happily.
1 TBH.
Simple as that. It owes you a little bit but you'll never see that back again. I can't imagine you've spent £k's on it anyway...
Sounds like the perfect set up to me. If you can afford it, and you have space for it, why not ?
It's not like you've got £10k sat there SORN'd...
Playing about with my flashgun at home after I'd 'fixed' the on-board flash issue.
Microswitch was staying down on the hot-shoe so camera thought there was a gun in place. :mad:

Put your lights on. Walk around the back of the car. Are all on that need to be ? Get a friend to help you - press the brakes and check again... same question.
It's the oil continuing to go around the turbo that's needed, not the engine cooling as such.
Use your noggin...
Keep it off boost for the last 5 mins if you've been blatting about like a mad thing anyway. If you've driven for an hour at 100+ down the motorway boosting the arse off it...
Everything generally under about £2k in the DSLR world uses a smaller sensor.
Full frame cameras like the 5D use an equivalent sensor to a 35mm film camera.
Makes sense now ;) I did wonder...
The ~£80 Canon 50mm f/1.8 can give you results like:

Many other things to do with it...
Pull the top of the door back carefully, poke unlock button or pull inner-release handle with coat hanger.
Call the AA or a locksmith.
Failing that, pop a window as far away from the drivers seat as poss !! Glass is awful and you will find it everywhere, for ever and ever...
LMFAO !
Brilliant.
I actually just throw my winter tyres away when they get dirty and buy some new ones. Luckily for me I'm loaded.
Me, apparently.
:approve:
Another hopefully longer attempt on the go before a) it turns into tomorrow already and b) it snows...
Battery 2 charging .. F1 style swap needed soon :o
