Indeed!

I know what you mean. Just back from a walk, and it's certainly windy here at the moment. Is this windier than it will be tonight or tomorrow? I have no idea!

How did you reach that conclusion?!?

Still think it is too early to say. There maybe talk of it heading south, there is talk of it heading north too! Even in the late stages, it could still change course at the last minute.

My thoughts on Monday......... I'm reserving judgement until at least 3PM on Sunday!

Nothing happening in North Somerset, but that's normal :-)

Right now in North Somerset, it is nothing but blue sky from horizon to horizon.

Those two streams of showers and storms have spent all day passing me by 20km to the north and 20km to the south.

At home ATM. Looks like that stuff from the SW is going to pass just to the south of me

Very fast moving today!

Now some better rain! Wonderful stuff. It's been a long time.

Nothing happening here! Bit of light rain. Stopped now.

Ten minutes of very light rain in Kettering. Stopped now. Doesn't have a thundery feel at all here. Unlike last Monday!

Will we even get drizzle in Northants? :-(

That's a very different outlook to the post above it :-) beautiful here in Northants too.

Did you get one? :-)

Many thanks for the replies. I've no interest in using software for anything other than viewing, (and very occasional cropping!). Am due a small bonus in the next couple of weeks, and was wondering about the upgrade. Sounds like I may be better off adding another lens then. Don't want to go down the compact, semi compact, hybrid route. Have been using SLR's for about 30 years now. Have only really had a very quick look around as yet, but I can see that I can go up to about 24MP for £300ish. On the face of it, that sounds so much better than six! But yeah, I know what you are saying about the hype! Thanks again.

Would that second one follow same path as the first??

Have a good day! (jealous)

I'm talking about last Tuesday

After Tuesdays forecast and reality, I'm not even confident of getting any rain.

Quick question for anyone with a bit of knowledge! I used to be well into photography, back in the film days. Had use of a dark room, and did my own developing, printing and so on. Anyhow, when things started to go digital, I did eventually buy a Nikon DSLR, which I still have, and use. But I never really took to it. Once others in the camera group I was in at the time went that route, and started 'shopping' everything, I lost interest. Not wishing to talk about the film/digital argument (if there is still such a thing), but have a question. My Nikon is 6MP. At the time, that was about mid range. Obviously, it's very outdated now. My mobile overtook that four phones ago!! If I bought a new one these days, would I notice much of a difference? Not sure how many MP a mid range one would have these days? Assume I can use my lenses with a new one, so would need to buy body only. Would there be a noticeable difference in quality??
