Re: Advice - Tripods?

Don't buy one retail. Wait for sale night at the club. I seem to remember that there were 5 or 6 last year. Alan D

Re: Hasselblad and its mine

It makes me feel like getting my Leica out, and taking some real photos. Nostalgia looming large on the horizon, as well as brilliant piccys. Best of luck with it, and don,t forget to insure it. Alan

Re: Photographer Arrested

Having watched the video, I contend that the police were acting lawfully and reasonably, and he was the author of his own misfortune in failing to give his name and address. He said he was a photographer. How does any officer on the street know that? In these days of terrorism, I think that it was h...

Re: Free Day Out?

Thanks for that info. Tom. Will probably go, if snow not all around again. I've always wanted to hand feed a giraffe. Alan D.

Re: Luxury Caravan with Sea Views

Being a caravanner, when I see a picture like this, I always wonder, who it belongs(ed) to, and how they got it there in the first place, and did they live in it or was it used as a bordello? I don't suppose we will ever know. I will think of you all next week, I will be in warmer climes. All the be...

Re: Len Smalley

I'ts always very difficult to know what to say in these circumstances, because nothing really helps. I am sorry to hear about Len, as I always had a chat with him when he was at the club, and I will miss him greatly. My thoughts are with Alice and the rest of Len's family at this sad time.

Re: Clubroom Improvements

Cleaning up the entry, as previously suggested, is a good idea, it would cost nothing, other than perhaps a couple of large stiff brushes, and a shovel or two. I've done it before, with our existing brush, it did not last, but it got rid of the broken glass that was strewn everywhere. (we were parki...

Re: New Projection Screen

I have no objection to a tripod screen in principle. The only comment I would make is about the height of the screen above the floor. Having been a member of the L.C.G.B. (now lapsed), and attended many interesting lectures, illustrated by slides, the problem was always that the poor people at the b...

Re: What you guys doing on Sat 26th of Sept

I would have loved to come or is is go, on the visit but on this day I will spend over 4 hours jammed in a seat on a Boeing 757, being forced to fly to the small island of Gran Canaria, where I will have to do my duty and drink ice cold lager, brandy and lemonade (diet of course), keeping the Englis...
