New Company car arrived

My first company car for many years – having in the past taken the view that I was better off financially buying my own second hand cars – arrived this morning. Not as fancy as my past few personal cars (Mercedes S-Class x2, Volvo XC90) but brand-new with lots of bells and whistles, better fuel consumption, and clear financial arrangements (no surprise bills – all taken care of).

New Nikon D300 D-SLR camera

I have upgraded my personal camera from the Nikon D200 to the Nikon D300. The fomer remains a superb, award-winning and highly regarded camera. The new model has some enhanced features that I think I shall be able to take advantage of at the level I have now reached.
