Come on......It just happened and it's not a rule to always lose it. So go and buy a new one and enjoy your passion for photography.
At the end of the day it's but an object that can be replaced. Unlike health or youth.
Have you ever found a thing that somebody else lost?
Steve, be creative - go out and steal one!
Yes, I once found a wallet and returned it to the owner as his address was in it. The miserable beggar didn't beven say "Thank You" (In fairness, he was probably gobsmacked that someone returned it)
If you found a substantial sum of money, say £ 250 +, would you pocket it or hand it in?
Yeah - on a good day New Plymouth is a stunning place to be.Quote:

Do you read the ingredients lists on the side of food packaging?
You bet! Amazing what you find there.....and what is put in some things.
What's your favorite recipe for a home made dish?
I think that using things in unexpected ways sometimes produces results which are surprisingly fun.
We have a kind of "chips" (?) in Australia called Burger Rings* which don't really taste like a burger at all.
If you put them into a mortar and grind them up into a powdery substance, you can then rub them all over chicken pieces to then put under the grill or on a barbecue. There's so much grease/oil in them, that you get something kind of like a weird spicy KFC type batter.

I read a metric heck-ton of books (particularly the classics). What novel should I read next and why?
Aunt Julia and the scriptwriter by Mario Vargas Llosa. In case you haven't already read it. Because the character Pedro Camacho is memorable. Because it's like reading two books, chapters of real life from a Peru in the years when the radio was still the king are mixed with the stories of the prolific scriptwriter who lose control on his characters. Because the humour is genuine and you'll find yourself laughing like mad.
Because M V Llosa is great.
What book will you recommend to me?
Since you read all the "literary stuff" you should try something lighter or something which you haven't tried, perhaps a genre you think you will not like but haven't given a chance at all...
What happened to steve's camera?
He was probably with a girl by the sea shore, lost his minds and forgot the camera. On the camera were loads of pics of the girl and they're lost now.
(Sorry Steve, that was mean, but I remembered what happened to a guy and couldn't help myself )
Will he get a new one?
I hope so.
Do you like a simple P&S camera or a SLR with lots of options?
