Actually, that's not new at all. They've had those for quite some time. And lets not forget that the Pclubs regularly used to have the NW mag and vice versa.

In other news, I'm really enjoying my new 300mm lens. :cool:

Just did a "test" purchase on the site, "buying" the usual amount of stuff i buy when I go home. the shipping costs were more than the price of an air ticket!

You need to remember that when I go home to buy, i usually buy a year's worth of stuff, and fill two huge suitcases.

So, it is still better for me to go home to purchase, than to do it online - the benefit of going home, of course, is that I get to

(a) drink with friends
(b) see family
(c) eat fish and chips from the best Fish'n'Chippy in the world (Kellaway Fish Bar in Brizzle)
(d) collect EQMs towards status
(e) collect RDMs towards RTW tix in F for two

and,

(f) have the experience of piling a shopping trolley full of tea bags, chocolate and other assorted items, and then see the look on the cashiers face when she has to scan it all! :D:D:D

I serve on many independent reviews a year where this is the case - have to write up an exit report before conducting the visit ... Did get a nice reimbursement check from one of those site visits today in the mail ^

Good afternoon Box. I'm cheating on CO today but making Delta pay in terms of the bourbon consumption category.

Yep. At IAH C a week ago I set off the metal detector wearing a belt that has never set the metal detector off before. And I didn't have my watch on my arm either, which I usually do.
