get 'em all broken. By broken I mean fixed. if all thier parts work when you take 'm to the vet, and all thier parts aren't working when you get them back, you cant call that "Fixed" seriously, keep em if you can, no kill shelter if you can't. that's the best you can do.... ps when it come t...

Update:- Another male kitten turned up whom we have called Dice, because he's white with black spots. He'll be neutered at the appropriate age and we'll adopt him as a house cat. We believe he was dumped on our estate. He needed vet treatment from day one, and was found in a neighbours garden, st...

Oh I am so sorry Peter. Dice sounded like a lovely cat. FLV and FIV are a real problem for pet cats in areas with lots of ferals. He could have got it from mutual grooming just as easily as from a bite, or even had it from birth - it can sometimes take a long time to overwhelm the immune sys...

He had this on both hips http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Femoral_head_ostectomy Got in terrible pain just after Christmas and turned out to have snapped both ball and socket joints in his back hips. From the X-ray it seems that they were very thin and probably mal-formed due to a problem during t...

This must have been similar to our spotty dog - he came to us at 18 months old as a rescue dog - we were his 3rd owners. Took him down to our vet and discovered he needed extensive surgery on his shoulders , not sure what the details of the condition were , but Paul, after doing it said he'd nev...

He is only a year old which is why we decided in the end to have the operation done. It's very unusual in cats and even more unusual to need both doing. We are amazed at how he has recovered. He is back more or less 100% after 6 weeks - running, jumping etc. He lacks a little spring still and can't ...

Hi Hardgravity! It's all down to what you'll use the PC for and what memory you'll use. 32bit Windows (be it XP, Vista or 7) will only ever recognise a maximum of 4GB of memory - be it RAM, video card memory, sound card memory etc - it's all part of the same pool as far as the 4GB limit goes. ...

Thanks Guys very helpful feed back from you all. I have looked at a few shops such as Dixons and to be honest pic quality varied from set to set. I did look at the Sony but was not that overly impressed to be honest. There was a nice LG with a good picture and the spec was also very good as well. ...

Go to a GOOD tv shop or a department store like John Lewis where they have most of the models on display side by side.GET THE EXACT MODEL NUMBER of the one you like best. ( then check the internet for the best price.) Then go back to John Lewis, price match and get a five year warranty! :D

I have done a lot of research for our own purposes (although yet to take the plunge) and back what Unlocker is saying. I have had that chart as our 'bible' in helping us decide what to buy. Also agree that general electronic chain stores are useless - even John Lewis. Sony are generally goo...

Welcome to the forum Morten. First off let me ask are you aware that of all DSLRs Pentax applies less sharpening to its jpegs than any other brand, so Pentax jpegs wll usually always need some degree of post sharpening, this has the advantage of retaining detail which can be lost if an image is o...

Morten, let me chip in please, but bear in mind that I am nowhere in the experience level and expertise as these good members above here who commented are. So take this with a pinch of salt, so here it goes When you started the thread I thought you were talking about bad images. I really thought ...

Morten, If you had sharper images with the K10D and this lens, then I'd hazard a guess to say that the focus is fractionally off on the K20D with this lens. Looking at the shot, the cluster of purple flowers just in front of the light house (the ones horizontally centre of the light house, about...

Morten, I'd suggest using a focus chart, a tripod, and using the Custom menu to Adjust AF for the particular lens. Matt is there any focus chart that you recommend?

Morten, I use the one at http://focustestchart.com/chart.html Set it up like this: * Daylight lit room * Camera on tripod - level! * Stick chart on wall * Position tripod at 45 degrees to the wall * The centre focus point should be pointing at the large black bar in the middle. * Move the le...

I did manage to get something close to those ones in the newspapers. Looking at those images just brought back memories and had to dig out a few and process them :)
