Hi, I use a Panasonic point and shoot, and have a really high regard for them, I have access to Canon dslr stuff, but honestly the Panasonic performs better in most situations, especially low light unless you want huge files or raw images.

I have had three over the years, first a TZ5, and since 2 TZ 7's...I managed to trash one by dropping it 40 feet, and the one I have now is an identical one bought off the bay boxed and mint with extra cards and batteries for about £80 delivered.

Takes short high def video too, has a great lens and macro setting etc., so great for close ups, plus is childishly simple to use.

Actual camera here reviewed;

Always loads on various sites S/H, and at the prices they are a total bargain, and you don't have to stress to much, mine goes everywhere with me!

Sorry if this is a bit off topic, but have been asked before and people are always surprised that you don't need to break the bank to get good photos!

Paul always has a selection of mystery guns. Just bring plenty of cash, although there is a cash machine next door at the supermarket



Thanks for the list Micky

That's a great selection of guns and it looks like there is going to be a good choice from simple spring and pneumatics to the older types of match spring air rifles.

A range and chrono will be available if anyone wishes to test a gun, like at last years Fayres

Hello all,
I'll be bringing a dozen or so BSA's, including Cadet, Meteor, & Merlins, Scorpion pistol.
Some Webleys, Mk III s, inc. Supertarget, Falcon, Hawk (2 barrels).
Milita.
Milbro.
Gem.
and a few more when I've decided what I can survive without.
All in good order.

I'll be coming down from the North East. Can some helpful soul give me some clues, regarding location, landmarks, postcode etc, ( I have satnav but il'll probably send me to Australia).
Regards Mel Holmes.

If you are coming down the M1 then it's probably junction 24, which is the junction for East Midlands Airport. Melbourne is about 5 miles west of the airport but your satnav should deal with the fine detail.

As above, plus the venue is right next door to the Budgens supermarket...if you see the supermarket to your left, the entrance to the RBL building car park is about 70 yards later after the big green supermarket sign, the RBL sign is a black one with marstons at the the top, in a green bush

This may help;

Drag the streetview "man" onto the Derby road between Blanch Croft and Dunnicliffe lane, and proceed north, and all will be revealed!
