andybarton Posted March 26, 2008 Share #21 Posted March 26, 2008 Advertisement (gone after registration) Who in their right mind would go about on a Saturday or Sunday with a crested tie? No, hang on, who in their right mind would go about on ANY day of the week, with a crested tie? Who wears a tie at all, these days? I agree that The Turf is an excellent pub, despite everything.

stunsworth Posted March 28, 2008 Share #29 Posted March 28, 2008 Andy, after your mention in this week's AP I think it's only fair that you 'push the envelope' on our behalf and take the pistol grip. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me? In AP? Bugger. What's that all about? Our friends in blue/yellow? Had an email in the week from someone looking for "the andybarton". I think they mean me. They work for some online magazine thing and are looking for the story. I'll send them to the two threads here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

(No shoulder stock on this image, of course) [ATTACH]80484[/ATTACH] Yes, in much more innocent times longer lenses were designed with shoulder stocks and pistol grips.... Sadly, they frequently did provide a steadier hold on the lens for wildlife and long range shots....oops !! - I mean exposures...oops !! - I mean captures....oops !! - I mean images...
