        Dave at the moment I agree with you, but that younger brain can absorb facts far quicker than mine, so that experience won't take long.
        John very true, I will try to look at it that way, but it won't be 5 minutes before his shots will be on here & getting a lot of praise, having taken some crackers on a bridge camera.

            Nothing beats some good friendly competition to rack up the quality; sock it to him
