LOL

and do they take a 1.4 TC

Not sure of the details but the sensors they attach to are somewhat deficient:

Posting the compulsory Duck shot won't be easy either

Its not amazing, I bought one in December for 220-210 from my standard business retailer. However its not a bad price...but you can find them around for that price easy enough or even less if you want to make a meal of it. Product is built well, works well, decent drives, usb controller is of good speed.

On another note, it must be about time for that Wellington GKPE meet that never happened in Dezemberrrr...

Yes it is. A certain Brent is off soon, don't want to be doing it once the sun's vanished. Verdict on a date?

Spent the last 24hrs seting up SBS2003 R2 .... all this to learn about e-mail servers ........ my boss may take a dim view me playing with the schools live exchange box

In photography related matters .... been a month since I took a photo

Mark, my brother in law was racing a sidecar, missed the first race, but raced in the last. His number is 51, he's also racing in Christchurch this weekend if anyone is going there, racing a Triumph, number 66.

Why thank you Bruce.
The wonders of plastic surgery.

Yes it is a long time. Maybe after all Ive gone throught in the last 10 weeks I will see the world very differently. Seeing the simple beauty that surrounds us all if we would only take the time to see it.
Whats that old saying "take time to smell the roses before you push up daisys"

Scott lent me a book and Im getting inspired "Waiting for the light" David Noton

Hmmm, your right Bruce, I don't remember seeing Peter with glasses .


To be honest with you Peter, I can't really recall what the glasses look like, they shouldn't allow pretty girls to sell stuff like that

Will post a "duck" shot is a week or so when they arrive.

Oh, so he's one of those nutters!!!!

I'll have a look, didn't take too many of the sidecars.


And, in other news, got my Sigma 18-50 2.8 back today, repaired no charge; replaced Aperture PCB, (also fixed zoom lock that I broke and didn't tell them about). Dropped off on 2nd Feb (afternoon), picked up today, so 17 working days incl. to & fro from the land of Aussie.

Sorry Mark, no No 51's. (unless his was the machine that broke in two on the warm-up lap right in front of the safety car) This was just around the corner from where I was on the 2nd race, sure would have given the safety car driver a fright (as well as the driver/swinger combo!)
