Very nice. And as I suggested, no tripod required.
That cheers me up.The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.

Cheers lads. Blakey, I did use a tripod. But you were right, the moon goes at a fair lick when viewed at 300mm and an additional 10x digital zoom on the screen.Ben

That's one to stick on the wall. Could have done with a long lens this morning as the litter of fox cubs living under our shed were sunbathing and using our compost heap as a slide.1985 Mercian King of Mercia - work in progress (Hah! Who am I kidding?)

The most satisfying moment Matthew is when you close the gate behind you for the very last time. Wish I had been a copper or other such that retired at an early age but although not that blessed am grateful I will never have to do another day in work.0 -

Don't think I'll ever retire if I have my health and still enjoy my work, which I do -- I'll stay as long as they'll keep me and after that maybe get a job in b&q or be a lolly pop man.0 -
My dad retired on a really good pension (30 years working for John Lewis!) and after six or seven months of retirement he went back to working as a lorry driver (which he absolutely loved doing!) for another six years. He said that retirement was grossly overrated.0

I work with a lot of very wealthy guys who seem to work for fun. I like to think I'd be out the door at the first sniff of a few million but I guess it's a different prospect when it happens.0 -

I've dragged the missus round many guitar shops in the past and still managed to avoid any real shopping time on her terms, I could see that changing quickly if we had a lot of free time. To be honest, if I had real money now I'd be in Canada riding mountain bikes again but by the time I could possibly have any real money I'll be too old to enjoy it properly0 -
