welcome to the new people... (troopa and HB).

I'm looking to bundle in my insurance with the current home insurance etc as did Michael. Works out much cheaper in the end. Even specialised photog cover is expensive :|

yeah for 10k gear the specialised insurance company i looked in to wanted like 80 a month might have been even more, only thing with bundling it with home insurance is if you start making money from your photog work you wont be covered if you claim while on the job.

We live in Belair. Nice and close to the city (12 mins), nice and close to the beach (12 mins) yet still has a bit of the bush feel about it. Gumeracha is very nice but its a bit more rural. great spot for taking pics though.

Well I've one heck of a day so far.

Went to Sydney for work. Or tried to. Got caught in traffic when fires blocked the roads. Then attempted a u-turn to return home and got my front wheel stuck in the only wheel-sized hole in the shoulder. Front wheel drive and both wheels were just spinning, so I was up sh*t creek. Standers-by couldn't help, NRMA weren't allowed into the area, and the RTA weren't going to be able to make it for hours.

So I went and made friends with an old guy with a 4WD, and a truckie with a rope. Thankfully they were up for some towing fun. I was out in no time! And thankfully the car was fine.

But it's been a waste of a day. Also a waste of many photographic opportunities, as I don't take my gear to work with me ... arrrghhhh!

Hope everyone else is having a good one!!
