Trevose Head

A friend of mine bought a point and shoot Canon Power Shot A80 3 1/2 years ago and from the day he inserted the batteries x4 he never got a picture from it as it refused to work, he said he could not be bothered and gave it to me, I had it repaired by Canon @ £90, my wife keeps it in her handbag `Just In Case`.
The problem, he put the batteries in the wrong way round, it `Blew` the protection diode and a miniture fuse. I offered it him back for the £90, he told me to "Go Forth".
Silly Man.

On the Repair Despatch Note it states.
Fit new spare parts.
Test/adjust body focus to Nikon standard.
Clean and check Image Sensor unit.
Firmware upgrade to the latest version.
Check test and clean equipment.

So really I am not much wiser but a lot more relieved.
I have no complaints with the Nikon service warranty on this issue and give them full marks.; 27 August 2009 at 01:30

It is a very exposed headland and gets quite windy as it was when we visited. A place a little isolated but ideal to walk about and relax a little.; 28 August 2009 at 06:19

Li Po

(Li Bai Li Po)

Drinking Alone with the Moon

A pot of wine among the flowers.

I drink alone, no friend with me.

I raise a cup to invite the moon.

He and my shadow and I make three.

The moon does not know how to drink;

My shadow mimes my capering;

But I'll make merry with them both-

And soon enough it will be Spring.

I sing- the moon moves to and fro.

I dance- my shadow leaps and sways.

Still sober, we exchange our joys.

Drunk- and we'll go our separate ways.

Let's pledge- beyond human ties- to be friends,

And meet where the Silver River ends.
