    BTW - couldn't find a march gallery in the drop down, so posted pic in Febs gallery on the 1stview site
    Sorry Dave. Aand apologies to all who tried to post on the FV site.

    I wasn't aware of the issue until SMWBO tried to upload earlier (the foibles of an admin account - <Memo2Self> should switch to member mode and check!).

    Anyhoo, all sorted now and images moved.

    Thanks to all concerned for persevering and using the FV gallery/archive to host their images.

    Re: sharpneil's pic

    The onyl comment I'd make is that because you've managed to freeze the action so well you've lost all sense of speed and movement. I'd try the saem again but set your DSLR to rear curtain flash and see if the resulkts improve then.

    Thanks for the comment. I will do. Usually I do most of my biking shots with second curtain sync but I got carried away with my new kit and took a lot of "static" shots this time.

    *snigger* I was wondering if anyone would notice that

    He's a bottle stopper, we, er... shove him in the wine between glasses. The little man on the right is a tea strainer, sometimes he catches the man on the lefts offshoots Theres also a blue man in the middle but you cant see him in this shot. Ill do a pic of them all for you later

    Re: South Shields

    We went looking for that chippie that won the best chippie in Britain, completely forgot to get its address and there seems to be a lot of chippies in South Shields

    Nice day out though - we went to Tynemouth later as well
