Just trying to pay my half of water bill online, todays the deadline even though it only falls due tomorrow. I've paid it online for years, but it seems that they have re-designed the site to make it impossible to pay them. First I can't paste details properly into the boxes and then it won't accept the payment I get:

Sorry you have attempted to submit a payment 3 times
without success using the same card, please re-try
using another card or re-try later.


I don't have another card.... idiot and there's nothing
wrong with the one I used

In the last week I've had trouble with the computer systems
of my bank, the Post Office and now the water company

Back to cheques and post in future

Very funny! and sums up well the nonsense talked on
some forums.... Just been reading something similar on a US
forum about lenses.... but that one wasn't mean't to be funny

Edit: I wonder if that post was inspired by the K-01

Might be a slight difference in the coatings.

In a few years time the Samsung version has all the boxes ticked
to make it into an "Internet Legend"..... just wait until the
mythmakers get started. It has the top German lensmakers
name of Schneider on it and was only in production for a very short
period comapred with the Pentax one which came with the K20D.

Buy Schneider lenses now before the Ten Fold price increase!

Having a full can of junk juice is almost as
nice as buying a new lens

I've still got some sweets that I was given in shop in Italy about twenty years ago, because Italy was short of small coins What are they worth now?
