    Dunno Deano.
    Before the net, I gave up reading / watching the news for 3 years. I was blissfully ignorant of such matters.

    I’d find it hard to do now.

    The nutter died with a bullet. Unclear if it was a Police shot, or his own.
    Deepest thoughts to anybody affected by this.
    A baby, at Christmas. FFS!
    I’d rather not know it happened.

    Invest a few hundred quid in a proper underwater cover unit for the 5D.
    Will be rather cumbersome around your neck though!

    See if you can contact some wildlife photographers which specialise in frosty animals etc. They are usually OK for a two minute chat. Andy Rouse used to have his phone number on the net, for example.

    …aren’t 4 of your states still colonial? 😉

    Yes, without USA, we would have been in a real mess. Maybe not (OK, 80% certain that the USA was needed) lost the war but maybe it would have gone on for another decade.
    And, post WW2 we would not have been able to rebuild Europe without the Marshall aid.

    That is why I shall always support the situation where the Americans get into a bit of pushy-shuvvy in the middle east or anywhere else….the Brits should assist out of historical duty and comradeship…IMO.

    We are a common people, separated by a common language but joined at the Atlantic. (Virtual prize for guessing who said that first)

    I do not know for sure the operating temps of the 5D or any other DSLR but personally, I’d be wary of taking a 5D out. A droplet of moisture inside “Anything” that moves will freeze/expand and possibly cause damage.
    The fogging up should not be a problem if you climatise it each time……but that’s how moisture would condense its evil way in there, methinks.

    I don’t look down on young people. I have several of my own.

    OK, the “Rise” in incidents is due to the born agains, but I think the majority of the problems is still youths. In cars too of course.

    However, 99% of bikers “Speed” and are always happy to brag about it. The 1% that don’t are possibly liars.

    Anyroad, back to the EEC and why UK should stay in and Cameron is a berk etc.

    “should the British people get a vote?”.

    No. >50% get their political information from Jeremy Kyle or the red tops. They do not have a clue. Brainwashed by “Bloody foriegners telling us what to do” type garbage.
