No probs matey

My Parents live about 15 miles south of Boro and its 2 - 2.5 hours from here - not that far

Could do a meet when the weathers better - im sure there must be some good spots mid way around skipton or somewhere or into the lakes ?

Bulb mode may just be a Nikon thing, but im sure yours will have it

2.5 hours, sounds about right - were staying in and having a nice meal and a "few" drinks but still intended getting hammered
