Congrats to ADAPS . Sorry I couldn't make it to eat my 'fair share' but my son has kindly passed on his 'man cold' and I needed nursing

For the short-sighted (Dave), those less experienced in life like the youngest (Keasla), and for those who think we'd act as gentlemen when food is on the agenda (Tracey), I'll put it simply - FORM AN ORDERLY QUEUE BEHIND ME!

Form an orderly queue for the refreshments - tallest first seems a good idea!

Many, many congratulations Peter,

Winning the Best in Class with the photo of Melissa is well justified and, if I'm being honest, IMHO it should have won the September 2012 monthly comp here at ADAPS - just goes to show that judging is very personal and very subjective.

Phil,

Phil, Not meaning to boast but I've done many restorations with some notable success. It's isn't a simple task and consequently firms charge an arm and a leg as it's pure labour - but you'll pay for that knowledge of the restorer plus their labour. It depends on the amount of work that's needed. I a...

Interesting - thanks for posting Brian.

I don't know if this helps but in the days of film if I shot a roll of 36 exposures I would be happy with 2-4 keepers - i.e. about 8%. But in today's 'snap-flash-thank you ma'am' digital age I would reduce that percentage substantially to nearer 1-2% unless you are very determined and can pre-visual...

Nice find Phil.

Just downloaded it - not as impressive as I thought, but that's possibly cos I'm not into videography.
