    Which digital camera, say budget of £250 or so ??

    Too right, the missus would have my balls off if she knew what i'd spent on Canon L series lenses.

    If you want a compact, this is the nuts http://www.jessops.com/Store/s36252/0/Digital-Compact-Cameras/Canon/IXUS-900Ti-Digital-Camera/details.aspx?&IsSearch=y&pageindex=1&comp=n#features 10mp, decent zoom and face recognition, you can get it cheaper than Jessops though. Won't be as good as a...

    Finally got HD

    If you're after Sky HD mate, nows a good time to go for it, we had to pay £300 for the box, they're offering it half price at the moment. Live football in HD is the dogs b****cks.

    How easy is your clio to drive & live with?

    The ride can be harsh in a Trophy on bad surfaces but its a riot in the twisties, had it nearly 2 years now and still loving it. Impractical as hell though, rear seats are as good as useless and i'm always smacking my head on the boot becuase it doesn't open far enough, but if i'd wanted...

    Norton security for PC

    Norton is poo, AVG free works just as well and doesn't hog resource, couple that up with either spybot search & destroy or ad-aware and your safe as houses.

    Trophy question

    I wouldn't bother with the rear seats, unless you have Douglas Bader in the family the back seats are as good as useless, with the drivers seat the way i like it theres literally 4 or 5 cm between the front and back seat - and it's not like i'm tall either!

    External HDD

    Because you want firewire as well as USB, they're pricier, found this at CCL http://www.cclonline.com/product-info.asp?product_id=8574&category_id=453&manufacturer_id=0 if you can live with just USB they have this...

    Belkin Wireless Routers - Suck?

    Linksys for me, been using this for 2 years now, had no trouble with it ever. That replaced a Netgear one that was so un-reliable that I smashed it against the edge of a desk till it broke in three.

    lots of free tomtom voices

    I've got a cd crammed full of em if anybody wants them, they're shite though, the only one that sounds anything like is the C3-P0 one, and that got annoying after about 9 seconds.

    172 Cup in Tesco Car Park Brighouse Tuesday

    Spotted a mint looking 172 Cup on Tuesday at about 11am, had a CS sticker bottom left hand corner of the rear window. You were parked 1 space diagonally from my filthy red shed.

    It Was A Sad Day, She Was Shot Down In Her Prime...

    In a situation like that, always get out the car, then immediately fall over screaming, then try to get up and squeal like a stuffed pig - rack those claims up :) Must be gutting mate, especially when its not your fault, its never happened to me <touches wood> so I don't know how i'd react, but...

    EOS 5D + 24-105 L, Kit

    The 550EX is a good flash, but its been replaced by the 580EX which is I think £300, the E-TTL works really well, the 2 pulses of the flash are so close you can barely register them, I find that a Stofen omni-bounce works wonders as well, but what a rip - £15 for a bit of opaque plastic. I've...

    Upto 45bhp extra - just when you need it!

    Hmmm increased fueling, so it'll presumably make your engine run like a bag of nails and make black sooty smoke piss out the back like my car did today when the engine temperature sensor went tits up with me nudging 3 figures on the bloody M1 today.

    EOS 5D + 24-105 L, Kit

    The other upside of that is with it being f/2.8 if you do use a converter you'll still be able to autofocus, anything over f4 wont, so it realistically covers 70-400 which aint shabby, and of course being an L it'll give good results. I bought the 100-400 L and questioned my sanity but it was...

    Crash Course in Photography

    For fireworks, use a tripod and set your camera to B (bulb) and use a shutter release if you can, set your exposure to 3 or 4 seconds and your aperture to f/11, start your exposure when it first bursts and stop when the trails disappear, that should do the trick. A good book for stuff like that...
