Just back from a site visit to discover my digital camera sat on top of the car roof.

I managed to drive 50 miles with it sliding in between the roof bars.

I wondered what the clonking noise was.......

:oops:

Bedrocky Barney - my Mum has lost lots of handbags (and cups of tea) like that - it's a good thing you've got plenty of bars on your roof rack!

Well, I've done it. I've cancelled my basic Sky subscription which was costing me £22 p.m. so I will save £264 per year - which will be enough to buy me a week's ski pass and a week's supply of hot chocolate at lunch time and elevenses on my next ski holiday :D

I'm amazed the camera didn't fall off but it is a large and very robust SLR type camera circa 8 years old which meant it is large enough not to slide underneath the bars. My wife gave me a funny look when I told her about it on my return. (ie, the kind of look that suggested that perhaps she should book me to the Doctor's for a check on my brain function.....) :-)

Makes sense. We've never had any kind of sky/cable connection. Just freeview and freesat here. I'd spend too much time watching sport!

Bugger. I've just had an email from our chalet operator wanting the balance of the payment for our New Year holiday. I'd forgotten to put a note in my diary. No food this month.

Bedrock Barney - funnily enough I'd been thinking about starting off a topic on this thread about what everyone would be willing to cut back on so that they could still afford to go ski-ing - but I think no food for a month is going a bit far :lol:
