This must be one of the photographer's worst nightmare scenarios - inadequate ISO and aperture, and snails that can Usain Bolt the 100 metres in under 10 days.The light was poor and the snails moved too fast for long exposures, despite the tripods and remote releases etc.

Is it just me, or do HG's pictures seem steadier after he's been drinking? Some form of advanced SR system going on?

yes - it's called relaxation - he's not holding his camera quite as tightly

Newbiggin News: One of the dogs overcome with excitement while waiting for the Olympic Torch Bearer to pass by. Considering the weather I was surprised so many people turned out to watch We got a free bottle of coke from the Coca Cola truck and saw a large screen image of someone, a footballer I think, on the side of the Samsung truck.

It's also favoured by some woodturners, so it might be worth advertising a few of the larger logs. It could well pay for the cutting down. {before you ask - no I don't want any}

You mad fool. With all that alcohol in the house you've bought a battery!
Made sure you keep it in the cellar. Under a concrete slab. In a bath full of water. With the lights turned off!

I have just got a Mico helicopter as an early Dads day present. Spent 30 mins flying it around the living room. The dog thinks its alive and wants to kill it. Great fun

Myself and my son are off for a haircut in the morning then my other half insists on taking my son to Wrexham to buy me a dad's day present - I keep saying that a big hug will do but they are not listening
I was at Christie Hospital today for my 12 month MOT - all ok so far - got out and decided to 'nip' to a shop or two in Manc to handle a k5 etc - totally mucked up the direction jobbie and went home in a strop instead (had a pick the missus up from Asda deadline) - big fail

I'll do it for 20% less than whoever else you have has quoted. It sounds like fun!
I shall stick to the professional thanks. The tree is taller than the house by quite a lot, and the house has three storeys.
It is a Chamaecyparis, which is good for building Japanese temples, but not so good for an open fire. If I had a wood-burning stove it would be great, but I don't and it seems a bit extreme to get one just to burn the tree .
