Anything goes in The Snug, General Discussion's rebellious little brother. An off-topic den of iniquity where any subject not covered elsewhere may be discussed. Well, anything except golf, Star Wars and Arsenal.

Good service in my experience, I bought my latest camera from them, but not sure how they compare to those ToMoS's list on price for used stuff.
Yeah , Park Cameras advertise in most of the leading photography magazines , Chaser - think they're competitive in their pricing too . :thup:

I've visited Ffordes [ Beauly ] on a couple of occasions , it's out in the country , nice little building , friendly staff and good online service - they had a good reputation on the Amateur Photographer Forum - stock looks very low just now though due to the pandemic [ and other places opening up ] .

Bad news. I'm out with the camera again.

Spotted this 'Nigella' or 'Love in The Mist' wildflower this morning. Pretty little thing.

DL - Dungeness is a great landscape isn’t it … I quite like the way that man has come along, interfered with nature, left and now nature is gently consuming what man has left behind.

Also, it is not pretty and doesn’t pretend to be - lobster pots, boats with ****ing paint etc, all adding to the charm.

All perfectly encapsulated by your photos … that is for sharing!! :newthumb:
