The Messerschmitt was German and even dafter than the Isetta.


I should be watching the Mentalist now, (I know, I know:blush but as is typical of Dutch commercial TV they have gone back to the middle of last season, without telling us. Drives me mad when they do that.

I've never dared to buy another since

And you stayed married to him? A saint!

Fingers crossed they come up with something good soon!

By the way, did the OP and the moderators resolve their apparent differences?

This is a long article but one which should be read by anyone who puts their photos on the web.

It will be interesting to see the outcome of the case.

For those of you who don't speak Dutch, roughly translated:

Wanted a Pentax SLR

In exchange for my Canon 100d, less than 100 photos taken, with a 55-250mm and 18-55mm lens, plus battery grip, 2 memory cards and extra batteries.

Complete with boxes!!!! Do you have a Pentax camera and lenses? call me. Willing to pay extra.
