Woohoo. And when I said blow smoke up my arse, I was referring to a super kinky sexual practise that Opus Dei Monks use to relieve some of that pent up tension!
If i can find a lift ill try and make it to your farewell do sweetie but right now funds are tight so i cant afford the train sorry, but if you come back and need a place to stay you can always have my sofa
A n excellent choice Madame! But you will have to tell me I haven't got mine yet; won't have the means till my birthday - & I might wait until after Christmas to see if I can get one in the sales. I had the S1 though & it was wonderful: that one is even more desirable. 12x optical zoom, & focusing as close as 1cm, higher 'ISO' & higher resolution...
Don't try to keep it in your pocket though - it'll make your trousers fall down.
Me again what I could have said about my camera is that it could do a lot of things I never even used, & the S3 has probably got more of those still. Once I got used to it I had it on manual most of the time as I felt more in control - but you only get the full range of exposure settings on the auto modes (some of them). It's fiddly If you need to manually focus though.
just to comment what you said on pinkie's journal..
i think there is a lot of hostility to some people everywhere.. not just in the chat room... so if we take the stance of closing chat down, the boards and groups have to go...
me leaving the house... ? and go where.. i'm surrounded by fields!
