    OK I’ll admit to being more than a little angry with the way that Bell through up our ExpressVu (now it’s simply Bell TV ) Dish on the chimney. But comments left both on this blog and in the Flickr feed have been rather supportive and tend to agree with me on the fact they…

    OK so it’s just a prototype… But in all honesty my daughter’s sense of imagination and ability to create some amazing stuff is mind boggling.

    My Gary Fong Puffer is BrokeH! (All puns intended)I bought this flash Puffer last week after receiving many recommendations from friends on Flickr and as well as help from the Staff of my local photo store.
