The long awaited camera turned out to be completely rubbish, how frustrating, so back it goes!
I went to Jessops today and bought a new one, which seems a lot more reliable and a good deal for my small budget. Its an Olympus Camedia c-170, and so far my shots of the dog (my usual test subject!) have turned out okay. Problem is I now have a 128mb SD card (Kodak make) with no use (this camera takes xd cards), if anyone is in the market for one at a reasonable price, please PM me! Otherwise its onto ebay, but just had a quick peek and they don't seem to be selling all that well there.
And my work thing has gone down the drain, as I had promised to do something for parents on Monday and must go through with it - boo! Which also means I can't get to Waterloo to print out the tickets before we go, I feel the stress coming back! I know I have to faith in the machines, but they tend to let me down!
