I downloaded software onto my desktop which searches and removes duplicated files which seemed a good idea at the time; however it dumped ALL my backup files including work emails into the trash bin, not the whole folders, even though the originals are on a separate hard drive so I am now laboriously transferring each file back to their original location. The other problem is that even if I disconnect my separate hard drive the software still “remembers” the files it dumped before and if I run it again it just repeats the process. Even worse I paid for it!

Tell them to set up a calendar reminder on their phones!

That’s very sad to hear Gwyn, did no-one twig when the cards arrived? Not even the pretence that the Amazon surprise delivery was late? It sounds like some serious grovelling is in order.

Well seeing as you have shown yours I had better show mine!

Further to the above a couple wouldn't upload at all, but then I uploaded five more and they appeared in my Approved in Gallery instantly. Is that normal?

Your post spurred me to have a go so signed up and submitted five; as I have heard nothing since I just did a name search and there they all are! Someone has edited my description and bag though. I’ll have to go in and upload a few more.

Well a few, hard to pick just one but that's submitted now.

How many can we submit?

Wow!

I think it is easy to get bogged down with equipment especially where other family members are involved, to the extent it gets put aside. To counter this I have found a couple of ways around this: first just take one lightweight prime lens like a 50mm, my favourite is the F2.8 macro as close-ups are within scope; second, a small portable like the GR III although I plumped for a Leica D-Lux 7 as it has a zoom and just looks so damned nice. It is a pleasant change to get back to using cameras how we used to and for other times you really appreciate what the rest of your kit can offer.
