leave my homebrew alone :) It was rich's X brew that did all the damage !! What was it steve said

"Its a bit like rum"
"where do you buy your rum"
"ASDA" :P


I managed to take zero pictures this year, its a skill I have. I will post a pic of the aftermath of mud left in my car after the party, I think there may have been 6 people in there at one point, got mud on the dash and even in the magazine pouches.

There was talk amongst santa pod staff that it may be a 2 day event next year. God help us !!!

Keep the pics coming guys.

Hardly met anyone in the end (sorry chaps).We ended up checking in to a hotel due to the on/off crappy weather and annoying storm bugs on the Saturday afternoon and ended up playing pool and went out for a curry etc.We did come back on Sunday though, but had to leave early! Next time we will camp for sure :)

Blimey, it's ancient in terms of cam technology matey.It's an old Olympus E-10 Digital SLR, one which is getting on for being 10 years old now.Quite a big thing to carry around, too and only 4.2 megapixels (most phones do that now I think lol) but it was a lovely bit of kit back in the day.I also have no idea how to use the manual settings on it really, so leave it on auto and just tweak/crop the images in paintshop.One thing I discovered early on, is that many of the lovely pics you see are played around with to make them look nicer.Photographers as a rule, do not just take superb shot after superb shot! (although when you understand all the manual settings etc, the world is your oyster) It's often all about making the image look good 'back at the lab' and if you have a really high megapixel cam, you can make many decent images from one single photo and if you shoot in RAW mode (I don't) you can produce some stunning results.

I may change it though at some point, simply due to the fact the zoom is pretty poor and you can't simply snap on another lense like you can with later cameras.I miss out on some lovely shots of racing etc due to the lack of zoom and being too far away.Anyway, don't be fooled if you think the pics look fairly decent, I could probably take someone elses image and make it look a whole lot better simply by using my PC!
