Anyway, I've just been looking at the compact cameras and there are some fantatstic models out there. Compacts are great for their point and shoot capabilities, some have some excellent features in their manual modes, and you can take some great photos with them, mess about with the settings and get a bit creative here and there - learn a bit about photography too, which is good (and the more you learn, the more you become tempted to get an SLR, which I AM NOT GOING TO DO!). But £479 for an EOS 350D is pretty good... NO! Not doing it. But compact cameras are fab, yes they are. As Bomb would say: "Point and shoot, that's all you need. Point, shoot, photo - see?".
You can read customer reviews of products on the Amazon site. I was checking out those for the Canon Powershot A620 - a really nice entry level compact digicam with lots of features, shooting modes and the like. I was a bit dismayed by this customer's review of the camera they bought:

It hasn't been enough to make me return the camera though. I agree with people who have commented on the incredibly flimsy cover for the usb lead ; this can be overcome by using a card reader .
It's worth the money but it certainly isn't as good as an SLR
No, Bill Moaner, a compact digicam certainly won't be as good as an SLR, you fucking dick. Is it just me, or are some people completely fucking stupid? It's like buying a Toyota Corolla and telling somebody "It drives around OK and is fairly comfortable and reliable, but its top speed is only 105mph and and it only has 86bhp (I've no idea if either of these figures are remotely correct). It's certainly not an Audi RS4!".
I hate my job
I am feeling demotivated and demoralised. I think I need to do something different with my life. Has anybody got any ideas? I wonder if there's a position of English Ambassador to Scotland going?
Friday
Still, at least it's Friday and I get to go out at the weekend. I wasn't going to introduce this idea here, but privacy be blown, it is nearly the weekend afterall! I'm thinking of getting my nipple pierced - yes or no?
Actually, it's about time I did a Yes or No here. Not done one for a while.
Environmentally friendly Nissan
I finally got round to washing my car last night. I don't know why I bothered because it was covered in tree sap and cherry blossom within an hour of finishing, but it always seems to drive a lot better and I like it a lot more when it's clean. As I was cleaning out the door jamb, I noticed what I thought was a leaf stuck in the deepest recesses, so I pulled it out. To my horror, I realised that I had a fucking sycamore tree sprouting from my door hinge! A tree, growing in my bloody car! Whatever next? Somebody twatting the rear bumper in the car park, that's what! Tossers.
I also cleaned the inside of the windscreen, or at least I thought I did. It appears that what I actually did was smear butter all over the glass. I'm so crap at cleaning my car, but I have a fear of car washes (along with my fear of house alarms and microwaves) so I'm a bit stuck.
Good day: sunshine
I think today is the last day we'll be getting warmth and sunshine for a while. I'm going to take advantage of this and see what sights are on display at the local shops. People generally wear the kind of outfits that wear while washing my car, only they reveal a lot more flesh than could ever be regarded as being within the boundries of decency.
I shall do survey of scorpion shin tattoos.

err...over the last year and a half you have on more than one occasion already stepped over what would in polite society be considered to be the boundries of decency.
Just bought a new camera. Canon IXUS 750. Despite being a point-n-fire model, the pics are great. Plus, unlike a DSLR, I can easily have it with me all the time in me bag.
Otherwise, it sort've defeats the point of having it, doesn't it?
Well yes, SLRs are ok if you want to carry a huge suitcase around with you, but most folk just want to be able to take decent photos without too much fuss.
As for polite society... well, it's weird how lack of contact with real people (i.e. through the internet) means that you really don't give a crap what you post because it doesn't seem particularly real here.
I love the canon powershot a510, but it apparently can only go down to F8.0 as well. Oh well, good thing I haven't played with that yet (as it is, I only just learned about the night shot mode, b/c of my brother whose camera has it and I saw the little star symbol on my selector and said "Hrm, I wonder if mine does that too?").
Nipple pierced: NO. Unless you're not too sensitive. Otherwise you-know-who doesn't get to play as much.
Sometimes the reviews are shite since they're paid by companies to write the reviews. I take them with a block of salt, then try it out myself at the store. I ended up having to return mine because of a faulty card-writing subsystem in the camera. Next one worked just fine and I still have it (remember? :)).
Re: car wash, why not ask your favourite blogger to come by and wash it for you, with less clothing on. Fun for you, and you can ... _reward_ ... her...
I do indeed remember it Aas. You had fun with it?
As far as nipple piercing goes; after what my tit and nipple has already gone through this past year, a prick with a needle is nothing. You should try having a fine needle aspiration - Jesus, that really hurt.
Nipple piercing: Yes. But only if Tazzy & Piggy take photos of the process with your camera and post the step-by-step details on their site.
I say no to the nipple piercing based solely on hard it might be to cover that with a bra some days.
But if that doesn't bother you, then full steam ahead.
Amazon should make some people take an IQ test prior to reviewing.
i wasn't referring to the prick (nobody cares about pricks anyways).
i meant, when you and cutie get all whatsit, make sure your piercing doesn't annoy you as her tongue plays with it.
sheesh. can't believe i have to get so *detailed*. this blog has gone to shite with all the nasty rated R comments!
Go for it Sniffy I had mine done about 8 years ago and never regretted it, Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh what fun I've had. Yummmmmmmmmm get it done girl. Lots of love Tatas :o) (Mrs Convict)
keep me out of this nip discussion!
Amateur photographers all live up their own arses. The difference between the results from a good quality compact and an SLR are neglible.
The pros carry compacts with them as they know that the results, with a bit of tweaking, are perfectly respectable.
I hate washing my car. I stupidly asked for a 'full showroom valet' last time it was serviced. Lovely job. Cunts charged ne £120 and the upholstery stank of formaldehyde for a month.
Heh he . . heh he . . .
She said "nipples"
he he . . he he . . .
Yes, let us document your nipple piercing!
Has Trump got any piercings? She looks the type. We imagine in very strange places.
Well, strange for us, not for dirty lesbo's.
ears and tongue you dirty little homo bears!
Keep the piercing chit chat directed at her ladyship. Nothing to do with me!
Indignant huff.
he he . . .
she said "Dirty little homo bears"
he he . . .

I don't know about the nipple piercing. Something about a sharp needle boring through a very sensitive part of my anatomy makes me go a bit squeamish. I'd imagine it would be tender and sore for quite a while and very difficult to cover with a bra. You just got healed - do you really want to go through sore tits again?
That said, I think a hoop is probably better than a stud in nipple piercing. Sexier, definitely.
I hate cleaning the car too. Its all the bug guts that annoy me and take so long to get rid of.
I love my little digital camera, otherwise I'd never have pics. I have a nikon coolpix3200. perfect for my needs.
Nipple piercing, don't ask for anyone's opinion, just do what you want. You have to live with it. There's a risk to anything like that but if you want it, do it.
and get a new job. I want one too. mine sucks.
Did you get your nipple pierced then? Hmm? Did you?
You don't blog,you don't phone,you don't write,you don't visit.
It will all end in tears,I tells you.
now look what you've done! you've made SID cry. Now this just has to stop. The Irish are expert criers. Even better than they are drinkers. Next thing you know there will be a tidal wave due to all the tears and you lot will all be moaning on about loss of lives in England. This just won't do.
*hand's SID a tissue*
stop crying SID. I'd better go before Tina tells me to arse off.
no pressure Tina (maybe you could just give SID a little pat on the shoulder eh?)
