No, that wedge is for men only. Girls won't be listening to their voice. trust me on this Stefan.
Good clip from TG.

The wedge Pentaxophile was thinking about is for girls only and the supplied link from TG tells you why

I know Amex can be dodgy that's why I have the SAGA Visa card.

I'm currently attempting a repair to the slide projector.
I've ground out the melted bubbly bit from the plastic lens and filled the hole with superglue, inspired by car windscreen repairs. I don't think it'll work but I've got nothing to lose by trying!
Failing that I note that it's possible to buy a mint little-used Leica projector (which takes the magazines we already have a pile of) for about £40.

Good luck DM.
The Lieca looks a good deal, anything with that name on is usually sold at a premium.
Bad news tonight is that my daughter, Honesty, has lost my Optio E50 at uni.
Still, that gives me a good excuse to get a new i10 from SRS...

Shame about your E50.
I'm getting a tasteful lime green RZ10.
I didn't like the orange (which SRS seems to call red), hated the lilac, and didn't want boring white or black, which left lime (or apple in Pentaxland) green. At least I should be able to find it easily .
Looks a nice little camera to slip in a pocket for dog walks.

I know, I was amazed to see anything with a Leica badge that cheaply. I guess so few people want slide projectors now that it isn't worth their while asking more.
I don't really need one as I can scan the slides, but I'd like a decent projector as you can see so much more detail on the big screen than you can from blowing up the results from a fairly cheap scanner. It's fine up to about A4 but that can't compete with projecting them 4ft high on the screen.

DM - sorry if I misunderstand what you are doing, but please be careful about getting superglue hot - it can produce very nasty fumes.
Here's a thing. I went out shopping earlier and the fridge is now full. The problem is that I have one bottle of Fuller's ESB and there is no room for it. I can only think of one place to put it. I know it's a school day tomorrow but...

Looked at the RZ10, can't justify the extra and wouldn't know which colour to go for Gwyn, hence the i10, probably in black.
I was eyeing a Lieca III body this afternoon, it's a good price but I don't know if I could justify it.

Hmm, it's not likely to be a problem as the superglue fix just isn't working (it turned into a thick paste rather than setting, also it has gone opaque)!
New projector it is then - will see what I can find in a week or so.
