They look good Vic, but you need to edit the post ASAP and
put at least one blank line between each pic so that they
aren't all joined together

Is the first one a Rocket!

You need to carry out proper tests, usually noise changes at the
main boundaries 400-800-1600-3200 etc. so 640 could well be the same
as 800 and all that's happening is that your losing speed

Try going through...

http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/insurance/home-insurance

The site owner is often on BBC Radio 2 talking about
money saving ideas.

With Aviva car insurance 3 years ago I got 12 months for
the cost of 9 plus I think it was £60 cash back. I've renewed
with them twice since because they are still the cheapest.

There was a woman on that site that got loads of discounts
and finished up paying about £18 for the years car
insurance.

BBC2 :: imagine... - Summer 2013
Vivian Maier: Who Took Nanny's Pictures?

Possibly of no interest to Pentaxians, because she only had
one lens and didn't suffer from LBA She also
had a camera that only took 12 photos and was MF only.....
so she didn't have an AF system that was as fast as Conikon
for shots of children etc. All she did was take
photgraphs Didn't even do HDR

Just in case you are remotely interested and missed
this program on BBC2 last night here's the iPlayer link.

The person who also owns a lot of her stuff (John Maloof) wasn't on the
program, but has a few news videos on his blog LINK.

My local pubs like that ...... all drinks are rented by the

the beer, scotch or wine that I consume on each visit
