Beowulf 87 Posted February 10, 2011 Well after about 7 months I finally got round to wiring up my front grill: I slaved them to the sidelights so they all come on together. Unsure of the legality of it but they are all only sidelights so hope they will be ok. Will see at MOT time :). Also put an old CD Radio in we had lying around. I made the mounting for it from one that Dave FKLGLS lent me: Sorry about the pic quality I must have had a dose of the shakes :) . Why is it though that digital cameras need you to stay perfectly still in order to get a decent picture? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Beowulf 87 Posted February 11, 2011 Radio 2 though you old git :rofl: :rofl: Looking good tony ,106.1 rock radio its the future :thumbup: I am caught between my past and present with music. In modern music I like NuMetal strangely enough, but there is not a decent FM station that caters for my taste :smashcomp: . I grew up in the 80's so love the 80's stuff a lot but I also like classical (although not opera). Cant stand dance music :toilet: I too am a lover of lights how about puttig some yellow filters on the grill lights to give wher that amercan look :thumbup: Not sure on the yellow lights Tony, they always remind me of French rather than American, lol.

83-GLS 2 Posted February 12, 2011 Radio 2 though you old git :rofl: :rofl: Radio 2 now is no different to how Radio 1 was back in 1990! The Steve Wright show is almost how I remember it as a 16 yr old apprentice. Just need Simon Bates's Our Tune at 11am to relive my mispent youth!

Simon Bates is now on Smooth radio, weekdays from 6am. As far as I know, he is also doing an Our Tune slot every Friday morning. Haven't heard the Our Tune bit yet, but listen to Batesy most mornings on way to work. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why is it though that digital cameras need you to stay perfectly still in order to get a decent picture? because you havn't turned on the steady cam function ? it's in there somewhere in the menu options it'll be 2 little hands with lines around em ? On mine you half press the button to set it then fully press to take the pic once the little hands are on the screen :thumbup: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
