My Dad had a 500cc Panther with a Garard sidecar, Single cylinder, ridged back end but we loved it. Mum and me in the sidecar and my sister on the back of the bike. 1956 to 1959. Wish I had it now.

... ha. looking good from here.... maybe even you might actually get the hung parliament and electoral reform that's long overdue.

And I can't vote there and I may well take citizenship so I can vote here.

How do you hang a parliament:

One very inexpensive solution is to use a close up lens with your 50-200mm lens. This screws into the front of the lens just like a filter and enables you to focus closer. Stopped down to f11 you will get excellent results.

Use a tripod to ensure correct focus and no camera shake.
John, Do you have any suggestions re were to get a close up lens and what the expected cost would be.

Lets talk about Stick Insects. My granddaughter keeps hers at our house as Mum is not keen on them. She collects the eggs and recently we have had 14 new arrivals. Any one want some. We have at least 50 eggs and she wont let me get rid as she wants to see how many hatch. Now this is pointless.

I hate it when I'm directed to a 'free download' only to find I have to make an 'account'.

If it's free why do they want my e-mail, name and address?

Sun's gone down and so is the temperature, but the pie's cooking nicely.

Personally I'd rather watch the Icelandic volcano than the politicians. The volcano has yet to make any campaign promises that it won't keep.
Just more hot air and not from the volcano

I had to stop watching as the tension was to much. Can I take any more of this over the next weeks. I think not
