Those are the ones I used, but it's been so long since I've used the 'D' that I can't remember at all. Don't think it was as much as 700 though - perhaps the DL is more efficient than the D?

By the way, have you moved? Thought you were Cambridgeshire way before.

Dan

Er, can't remember, it's been a while since I've used it now. 250? I would always have a charged spare set, so I was never too concerned about how many I got out of them.

Dan

P.S. It's too late for cake, you won't be able to sleep properly.

Hello there Father, would you like some tea? Ah, go on, go on!

Anyway, have a look at this thread, it talks about rechargeable CR-V3s, eneloops, NiMHs etc.

I always just used NiMH in my *istD and never really had any problems with them, but the eneloops and Lithiums seem popular too.

Dan

Perhaps they felt they had safety in numbers. That middle one's really eyeballing you, I'd watch him!

Dan

Sorry!

Remembered I'd done this pic a few weeks back for something slightly different, and thought I'd pop it up here today.

South of France? By 'eck! It's Malham Cove in Yorkshire!

The sign is a complete photoshop creation, the original does look somewhat nicer without it. It could have done with more contrast, harsher shadows on the legs would have made it look a bit more 'right'.

Anyway, Basildon, and the whole of Essex for that matter, has plenty of beauty spots, they just don't look like this one. Rolling countryside yes, sheer limestone cliffs no.

It just wandered into shot.

Dan

Doh! Didn't think of that, if only I'd stepped to the right a bit.

Dan

What are you suggesting?!?

Dan

All of those and more - you never turn your back on a hooded duck.

And you think you have nasty wildlife over there!

Dan

...probably them that nicked the waterfall too, now I think about it.
