I would suggest you learn to use the gear you have before you buy more.
If you read around the forums for a while you will soon discover that it is the photographer who makes the photo, not thier gear.
It's very easy to end with a pile of gear you don't know how to use, but much more rewarding to work with the gear you have and learn how it works.

Cheers for that. That flash bracket was suppose to be for indoor night to stop shadow from taking vertically. But might as well save my money.

I wouldn't recommend it with some of those guys, but you're pretty safe with me.:p

that's true, Mo is rather scary :) I wouldn't pick a fight with her.

Kirst : Of course it will, those things can carry rather large loads.

One would hope.
However, stopping distances have diminished some what. I have about a tonne, and then some, of stuff in the car.

I'm a tad stressed. which is near impossible for me.
I have a tree to put up (flatty's request and I promised)
Presents to wrap
Bags to pack
Folders for presentations to make up (and prepare for)
Photos to edit and send off to print (for flatty.. him and his son stuff)
Washing to do
Room to sought out
3 Guitars to move out of the lounge (tree's spot)
And then, if I'm lucky, sleep :)

I have to be up and gone by 6 at the absolute latest.. but I'm thinking, with this weather, more like 5 to get to Kerikeri on time for a presentation.

Oh boy

well don't start pulling our your hair. that wouldn't be a good look for the presentation.

I am sure once you are there and almost done you will be surprised by what you can do.

Heard of strobist? (external link) read it and learn off camera flash. You'll get much better results.

Wow another thread so soon... Which group has the most new threads?
