We lived in the North of England once" Pontefract, filthy.
We always knew when we were entering the North divide, the graffiti would start as would the litter and dirt along the sides of the road, and when you finally started to leave, the litter ended as did the graffiti.
One assumes that bad spelling and litter is a way of life ooop norf
Anyway, as I have no interest in this forum, boring, bye
Definitely recommend the 100-400L IS. I got wildlife shots in Sri Lanka without putting myself in danger. The IS is superb - shots you think you've missed are still sharp. Focus is as fast as you need. 100 is wide enough so you can survey the scene, find a target and zoom in within a few seconds. The focusing options in the IV, especially the 3X3 pattern mean you have to be blind or dead not to get a crisp shot.
