YAHOOO!! It looks brilliant - what a piece of work (in a good way) PK's a lucky skunk. Jabo

Thanks Swep. I didn't want to buy a new lens, but at least it's the cheap(er) one that failed. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Euros? Pfft I think not. Mind you just cos we're not in the single currency, doesn't mean we're exempt from paying out millions to bail out banks that are...Moving on...
-
New lens arrived - problem cleared as you can see Taken today during a (very wet) falconry experience session for the family. Jabo P.S. Gec - if your friend wants the old lens, drop me a PM

English pounds?

That looks like a good candidate for restoration Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have a good key Brando - you'll just need a vanilla XP disk (no preloaded Service Packs) - which I can also help you with if you want it. It's a corporate key too.

Application has gone in guys. Including myself i've requested 7 tickets although this will not be in the seated area alongside the memorial as the limit for tickets there is 2. People expressing an interest; Jabo Painless Fenrir Fruitbat Blubear (?) Sid (?) JP (?) Doing the math, i reckon thats 7. Jabo P.S. The itinerary I have shows the Service starting at noon although it advises arriving early to get through the security checks

OK, that's four needed so far then
-
You'd probably have to roll your trouser legs up and paddle across BA.
-
Hmm, the price is reasonable, but it's too far for me. Sorry m8
-
Fair do's. Painess and Sir Tomfen. Any other takers?
-
That's looks like one to try - Nice work m8. Jabo
-
Lol - yes, I recall that was a bit of a bust
-
No one? OK then
-
No need m8, he's touching the case. I think the thumb thing might be a bigger problem though.

Not sure in this case Todd, but the pictures I've seen of Hurricanes being unpacked on Malta shows metal container-style crates. I'd like to think that there are 60-odd 'new' Spitfires there just waiting to be unearthed but somehow I doubt it's that simple. Jabo

Ouch - that must've reeeeeally hurt. Mind you, there were people outside the fence during the RIAT at RAF Fairford (getting a free airshow) a few years back who were proposing to sue the RAF after the Vulcan demonstrated it's short take-off capability (basically brakes on, full throttle, brakes off) right at the very end of the runway where they were stood. The fact that the police had already warned them twice and moved them on once had nothing to do with it.
-
OK Gec, I've got a replacement on order, it should be here tomorrow - as long as that's OK and doesn't show any problems with the camera we'll come to an arrangement. Jabo
-
Hmmm, That certainly came to nothing and much as I would love the Burmese Spitfires to be true (60 'new' Mk II's? Yippee!) I fear he's wasiting his money - and made our PM look a bit of a twerp. Again.
-
True, except for two points. 1 - I can't use the macro mode (which is probably more often than not) cos that locks the focal length at 300mm and 2 - I'm not sure I trust it now. In any case, the lens is about 7-8 years old and has been well used, so for £100ish I've had my money's worth.

No, that's no good. I guess this lens is scrap Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
