And then my birthday is 8 weeks after Christmas day and for that I'm getting.... DRIVING LESSONS! Yeeeah!

Jimmy, if you need any settings for the Mk2 let me know, its a awesome camera and will last you years, they really are built like tanks.

Example of what you can get from the mk2.

Awesome pic jonathan.
I sure do need some mk2 tips, its a beast, so much to learn on it.

I will send you the custom settings i used on the mk2, use this as a base settings and tweak from there :lol:

And you should be sorted now for indoors racing, as the high iso settings of 1600 are very useable.

That's definatley a camera, not a sock ? :lol:

Anyhow, as things turned out, I didn't get any socks this year. I did though get my Tamiya Frog, nice.

You forgot the kids thing as well, we don't have those so I guess that helps with disposable income.
Anyway, what's this excess cash you speak of? I have been working since september and I don't feel to have earned anything so far! :P

Anyhow, as things turned out, I didn't get any socks this year.

I did I did!! I got... some AfroKen slippery ones from the twins at school, some lovely soft ones that are like slippers with straps over the top, some other nice soft fluffy ones, some Jingley ones but I managed to kill the bells and 2 other pairs. I think that's it anyway...

AND my mum couldn't find the real stockings so she used some of my knee high stripy ones... so now I have a lovely orange shaped bulge in each of my silver and black socks!

Oh and Santa brought a video camera too...
