Re: Anyone know where the Midlands are?

Not really surprising crap reporting as the live pages are terrible as anyone who has come across Devonlive and the now going same way Dorsetlive. Really think they just watch local social...

Re: Changes to Flickr Accounts
I'm still quite frustrated by this. As I said before, I understand and accept their reasoning as a business and as others have pointed out, you don't get very much for free. The trouble for me personally is, if your primary hobby/interest isn't photography and you've just enjoyed a way of sharing a...

Re: Using Tablets at Airshows ???
Could be Craig is looking for a tablet to view the pictures on. Sometimes when i go out i take my tablet Samsung 3 tab and a OTG (on the go lead) to look at the pictures on a bigger screen 10in as opposed to a 3in screen on the camera. All you do is connect the cable (which came with the camera) usb...

Re: Football Grounds
Some cracking photo's of the grounds in here, I've only ever visited one Prem ground and that was Goodison Park in the late 90's. To me I find they lack the character of the lower levels of football grounds i.e: Abbey Hey (nwcfl), Marine (evostik), Clitheroe (evostik), Barnton (nwcfl), Cheadle Town...

Re: 2 Rotary's + 2 Low Loaders @ Norwich.
Is the other one to be stored WB as both of the ones in your pictures are both ex Lee so would have thought the ex Portland one would be with them or has it gone somewhere else.
