Thanks for this picture John !

Cracking picture John - certainly proof of clear blue skies over NI!

Hope Christingle service went well - I have fond memories of our dog (Pinza actually) having a feast on prepared oranges, raisins (and even the cocktail sticks..). Silly beast wasn't very well after either!

See www.flightstats.com have finally updated their false data on today's flight that confused me earlier.

Hi Chris and Hosch thanks re the picture it was hand held so a bit wobbly but it gives a reasonable representation as it overflew me.

The Christingle did go well. My youngest girl has Down's Syndrome and it was Her school's service today. I leave it every year with my spirits raised and faith that there is still a lot of good in this World, and that can't be a bad thing.

Well said, and the help of people on this forum goes to prove that in some small way.

Hello there I am after a new camera how good is this one, and you obviously recommend it what is the exact model and how good is it against its competition, I want to use it at the airport for arrival and departure shots as well as taxiing aircraft

The camera body appears to show it as a Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ28, I'm sure you can Google for a review or more information on the camera.

I'd also guess that the lens shown doesn't come with the camera, and with an aperture like that means you need to have the income of a small country to afford one!
