    [B]Why do market researchers ALWAYS approach me??

    Give them a glazed look and repeat ,
    ” I am a fully double glazed , fitted kitchen with vertical blinds and am a child eating devil worshipper ” – then ask for their address , works well too with the Hare Krishna’s too , doesn’t go down well when the wife is with you though.

    Yo , I still maintain that us Scots invaded England years ago , they just ain’t realised it yet . They get a Scottish Prime Minister ( educated at Fettes ) and we almost made them keep Robin Cook too!!.

    Now any fool can, with practise get and aircraft in mid frame and in focus (Lord knows if I can do it anyone can), but it is a special talent that has the eye for a good photo.

    Take the Lanc, a simple enough photo but taken in the context of the City of Lincoln and you have something a bit special.

    Great stuff Mr B. Game on for the next week at Legends and RIAT.

    Well said , I bought some recommended Canon kit just for East Fortune this Saturday but my results so far have been abominable , I could live to be 200 yr old and still never get a photo anywhere near the standard of Damien’s stuff.
    Can you still buy Polaroid Instant Cameras:confused:

    In my ATC days I flew in a Varsity.

    My first ever trip abroad in an aircraft was a Viking which took me from somewhere in the UK to Perpignan in S France.

    Long old haul at those speeds.

    It had a downward looking window in the bog. You could sit doing your business whilst watching the French countryside slide past your Y-fronts at about 180 knots.

    Was there a specific target or was it a target of opportunity mission??
