Another pointless thread

ARGH !!

Just been to the folk across the road to answer questions about cameras [ do NOT laugh ]

Their granddaughter is 9 tomorrow and they want to take piccies at the B-day party - and son has found 4 cameras in the house - a Polaroid [ no instructions for it - but seemingly has a film pack in it ] A Video camera - has instructions abut has not been used by fond grand mamma, 2 x 35 mm - neither with film or with batteries.

So have volunteered to lend my P70 - charging batteries getting new card in, and will give short instructions before they head off at 9.30 am.

Don't see how Isobel can go wrong with that .

Was given a glass of sherry whilst looking at the camera stock - OK but a LARGE wine glass ??

My sherry glasses hold maybe 75ml, small glasses hold 125ml and my big ones hold a bit more - 150 !!

This glass was bigger than any of them !!

Dear Lord - I'm off to eat

sounds like you should change your name to Tipsy Terminator

cheeky

Well P70 now set up for Isobel to use - she will be shown how to switch it on and press the shutter - that's all she needs It's in Auto and since it's a kids party I've set the flash to auto and red eye .

Oops! sorry HG forgot where i was for a short time, must have been summat in a bottle.

I'm appalled that HG is still on here while he's on holiday! I know he'd say the same if I checked my facebook everyday!

he's just checking up on you Honesty

How's your man doing - has he remembered that ladders are to stand safely on - they aren't diving boards

Holidays are from work. this forum is for fun, especially after a small drink or two. Just refreshing after having our twin grandsons overnight. They are great little chaps, now getting into gardening so we had a tree planting session.

Hi All

I had almost forgotten to bore you all with my pointless existence for a while

I have been busy - one wedding - 500+ shots to route through but at least today we had a day out in Harlech having taken my better halves Father out for the day

I hope everyone is okey dokey

Yeah, Bambi's not doing too bad, hopping along nicely....
Hopefully he'll be off his crutches and walking again by my birthday

I wonder why the BBC have published this article link about "snobbery over corks" (4th most popular read today) when it is completely wrong? It looks like it could have been written as an advertisement for a plastic cork manufacturer, but the BBC aren't supposed to publish advertising

It's well known that Real Corks are better for the environment and animals. This article link even mentions that "Clever propaganda by the manufacturers of screw tops and plastic corks has led many people to think that cork stoppers are bad for the environment when exactly the opposite is true."

There's not even anywhere to comment on the BBC article?
Have the BBC been taken in? It's hard to believe that they don't
know better

Also Guardian article about the environment link

Anyone else ever wonder about authentic fake passports? Linguistically are they a bit like hot cold snow?

And how many member of this forum ever wonder ‘well I could really use a authentic fake passports or driver’s licence but where could I find one?’. These are just some of the questions that popped into my head yesterday

There ain't no such thing as a plastic cork!

A cork, by definition, is made from the bark of the cork tree. If the thing is made of anything else, it's a stopper or bung.

Do people actually replace the cork in a bottle I do replace the screw top on a bottle of milk but that is just stop flies falling in.

Genuine fake documents have their place. I used to have a genuine Master's Certificate issued by the Panamanian government, cost $25 which allowed me to take command of any type of ship. They were issued so the officers of the flag state of the vessel could go about their business. I'm not sure if they had an equivalent certificate for aircraft

I've never replaced the cork on a wine bottle!
