Hi Tooks - 20th Aug - Dawlish, 22/23 Aug Shoreham and Bournemouth all confirmed.

Last year she had a lot of teething problems and only made 50% of her commitment. This year she has managed 5 out of 6.

Chris - unfortunately you are right, but that may mean they can use the saved fatigue life to sharpen the display up. Apparently it is better this year.

Hi MM. The car parks are vast and have never filled up in the 15 years I have been going. I'm aiming to be about two thirds of the way down the runway to catch things as they lift off.

Fingers crossed for '558

OK Ladies and Gents - think of it this way. Rumours are that the the mean number of operations between failure of the camera is 100000. Now if every time you took a picture you took another, is the camera going to last as long.

Maybe since operating it will eventually cause it to fail, they should not have put a shutter release button on it.

Same reason I never start the engine in my car

You would hope the designers would have got this right.

If you had to go to three adjacent shops, would you drive to the first, park up and stop the engine, then restart it and drive to the second and so on?

One way or the other, there will be more wear and tear on the camera if it is used all the time.

If you haven't changed the lens, what is the point?

Hi Emma

If you are into birds, I can recommend the wildlife wetlands trust just outside Arundel.

If you want old engineering, try Amberly

If you want old houses, try Weald and Downsland Museum

If you had anything specific in mind let us know.

Still no need to be sorry. You have your opinion and I have no problem with that.

I do like how people make assumptions on the basis of one photograph though ...

No. Oggy suggested you had been grossely irresponsible.
