For HDR I start somewhere, 3-4 clicks between shots and then see what happens. Within 9 shots I'm nearly at one end of the scale...

Well, unless I misuse the garage for it, but then I can't make any dust
Let's see what happens when the builders are done with outside, I think they're around a month behind schedule, which is why we have a diesel-powered heater blower pushing warm air up the side of the building. To dry everything out before the real winter hits.

I also realised while I was downstairs what's going on.
This is a local. It's a quiet pub, where most everyone is known - at least to the barman and several regulars. There are no strict rules, but a certain amount of decency, stiff upper lip and obsequiousness are shown and expected - foreigners get a break because they don't know any better.
On any given subject some know more than others and arguments will happen - but normally the arguers will buy one another beer again and life goes on. Sometimes strangers come in for a pint or five and ask silly questions - the questions get answered and sometimes they'll stick around for a while.
Some want to come back in, even if they've moved away, but it's an effort, as they appreciate the knowledge and people they've got to know.
Changing the furniture or the bar layout?
"you can't come in here, mate, you don't live 'raaand 'ere! hop it!"
I think the simile works quite nicely.

I recently lost most of the settings on the G13 due to a hardware issue and forgetting to back it up. I'm missing it already as I also had track forwards and back and pause and volume controls also set up... that it will change automatically to the just-opened program shortcuts is a really nice touch.

Implications on the web say "it should work", but I don't know what version of the driver that would apply to.

You can get a 50-200 for that, but the 55-300 is a lot more.

I've had personal liability insurance for a very long time. Comes with living in Germany and having pets and / or kids. €3m compensation limit for €50 a year. Rarely sold here as the liability thing hasn't caught on; you're on your own.
