Thinking of getting a laptop budget is around £600. Any recommendations? Most of the reviews say Win 8 is terrible so I would be replacing that with either Win 7 and/or Linux. What minimum screen resolution should I be looking at, the cheaper laptops all seem to be 1366 x 768 which looks very chunky on mrs snaps screen.

Thanks for suggestions

International Regulations For the Prevention Of Collisions at Sea

Rule 5 Lookout

Every vessel shall at all times maintain a proper lookout by sight and hearing as well as by all available means appropriate in the prevailing circumstances and conditions so as to make a full appraisal of the situation and of the risk of collision.

Includes preventing collisions with islands too

K-01 is discontinued so why want one of those. There are some very good compact cameras available if "small" is important

I once started to feel light headed after only 6 glasses of beer, perhaps it was because it was in a beer tent in Munich

A nice set. I'm at that stage "Why did I buy it"

Plenty detail in the images. The last pigeon shot made me smile, seems to have looked at you and said,"What"??

I like the snowdrops and the seaside pics although the others are very good too
