I had the Insta 360 original Changed it for the GoPro 360 But gone back to Insta with the X3 They have the X4 out now and both the X3 and X4 use the updated software. I lost my selfie stick before our Tiree trip and the wobbly one that had held the camera in place (but wobbly) on this film below sho...

There's a short review of it on YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KaRNE7Jl9E8 Idiot proof? There's a programmer's quip: programming is a race between programmers writing better and more idiot proof code and the universe producing more and better idiots. So far the universe is winning! :lol:...

After losing my first drone in the Mersey, I vowed never to get another....... But this is hopefully idiot proof and cheap enough to lose :oops: https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54002931809_6ff2edec6e_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54002612611_a33b056cb1_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr...

An idiot proof drone

If that's the Longsdale Car & Coach Parking spot it's now chargeable, we parked our motorhome there (2 hours free, but chargeable after that now) to get lunch and ferry tickets before we drove to McQeens

I know, but we didn't fancy parking our new motorhome in an open area, same goes for anyone with a valuable car or a van if they worry.
I wouldn't pay to use it with my Dacia, that's for sure

If you are heading over to the Hebrides and thinking of leaving from Oban.... I highly recommend McQeens Bros storage. https://www.macqueenbros.com/ We left our motorhome with them while we went to Tiree for 2 nights self catering (£400 for a 7.5m on CalMac) for just £15 a night for 3 days/nights th...

Yeh, but I like OS maps, it must be an age thing

For those of us who signed up to OS Maps online last year my annual automatic subscription email arrived priced at £28.99. Still great value for money, but this was followed by another email offering new subscribers 30% off using the code SUMMERWALKS but £8.70 is £8.70 Of course this is offer is on...

Every day's a Friday for me...........
I can very highly recommend early retirement.
If you are in 2 minds about doing it and if you can afford it, do it.

No more Monday dread (even when I enjoyed my job)

Absolutely the best waterproof jacket on the market for bike packing.

Update.
I was told
Download the GPX
Go to the download
Open it with OS Maps
Job done

Unfortunately, that hasn't worked on mine just now.
Looks like I'm have to call their tech help one day

Hi, if you are a Premium OS maps subscriber please can you check yours for me? I don't seem to be able to upload GPX files to routes on my phone any more. Have you got this function to be able to upload GPX's via your phobe app?. Or is it just me? Or am I missing a secret function that's been change...

On a personal note, I've not ridden a trail centre at all since the MTB E Bike revolution started, I have no interest in fighting off motorbikes I wonder if others have done the same to lower the numbers.

If Stuart had a bar, this would be above it I'm sure

And not the bit about pickled eggs

After starting the Wainwrights in the lakes when I was a youngster just after passing my driving test, I then stopped after finding bikes and now in early retired it's time to tick off some more This is the view from Wansfell my 144ths Wainwright 2/3rd ticked off just 70 left to do before I shuffle ...

Hi Keith,

I'll drop you a message on here, thanks

Does anyone here live in Oban or who have kind relatives in the town please?
I could do with a favour if so.
Thanks

An Arctic tern, nesting on a massive flock on the Northumberland coast

As Greg has said, no I was playing with the big boys camera for the first time in ages that day

This bottom motorhome picture was on the phone on panorama mode and edited in Snapseed

Considering the slow lens and DOF, that's some damn good autofocus to pull that and not blur the panno.

One of your better shots - and you resisted over processing it :)

Thank you Greg

As I had a morning spare.

2 bikes bottom brackets and crank arms removed and re greased before assembly.
And serviced a squeeky peddle too
