On this forum, you could start a thread, with any topic, and eventually it will gravitate towards booze.
In the case of this particular thread, we seem to have achieved a sort of eliptical orbit around the subject of booze. Every so often we swing away from it, only to come back again at high speed!
you don't have to be mad to post here

Nothing...we've just polished-off a nice italian red which accompanied the traditional friday-night homemade pizza extravaganza, and I'm now comptemplating the rather-poor Lemonchellas you can get in this country. Anyone got any good sources?

The Gopherment are going to make it too expensive.

An appeal to wine drinkers - please try to stick to bottles with cork stoppers.

To make these, they have to grow trees which gives birds homes.

Thankyou.

The Gopherment can then chop them down - displace the birds and turn the trees into paper on which to print their pointless drivel...

Made my usual Saturday loop into the top of town this morning from Sainsbury's cp and saw more Pentaxes than any other make on my travels - and all round the necks of women.

So on the basis of this very comprehensive and sophisticated market analysis (well we do have one of the best Universities in the UK and its Bath Festival time, therefore Bath is clearly a cut above the rest, more so than normal ), have to conclude that

Pentax have cracked the femine DSLR market

Nikon DSLR only apeal to males of asia extaction

Sony, Canon - forget it, so yesterday

Could it be the nice colours that pretty Kx comes in do you think?

Just in from work, guess what I'm going to do after a quick shower?

No. Both ladies were sporting standard bodies ( better rephrase that - both DSLRs were in the usual black liveries :lol. But since both had their lens caps in place (as did the gentleman with the Nikon), could have been an "accessory"

I'm just about to sit down for 12 hours of drawing circular things on top of other circular like things. Shoot me now.

All we need now is for the old film bodies to be decreed "cool" and we'll all be popular!
