Suggestions please. I am not paying more than £6/bottle

Are you joking?

Perhaps later you will be visiting the Blue Oyster Bar?

So, what do you earn??? ;)

JOKE

less than a GP more than a bin man

This is funny really because Mrs snapzzz and i have been having a big chat this week about how different people are when it comes to personal matters.
I really don't mind who knows how much i earn, if I'm ill or if i'm in debt.....i really don't care. We are all equal in my eyes, you are no better than i , we just have different lives.
Mrs Snapzzz however values her privacy massively, she reads Facebook but NEVER posts.
I suppose its just life's rich tapestry....we are who we are.

I do not care what you think of me, simple.

...but very funny seeing their faces when they ask you how much you paid and it was half what they did!!!

Wouldn't it be considered a rude question to ask - like asking someone you just met how much they make per year? :)

I suppose some would think so, personally i don't care. If people ask me i tell them, it also doesn't bother me if people wanted to know what i earn.

I wonder if the ladies in Afgan or Iran are allowed to put a bobble on their burka

Absolute rubbish. I could film better on mu iPhone

The Go Pro is a really good camera

Correct. And because most phones have half decent cameras nowadays, no one is buying cameras so you can buy a really good digi for under £100 now too.

Comparing the Ramos to a GoPro is like comparing a Fiat Panda to a BMW 5 series, rather silly. The GoPro is over 400% more expensive.

Used to sell a range of action cameras were I used to work, but the trouble was not worth the effort. People used to come in after their holiday claiming their camera stopped working when in fact they damaged it. A GoPro is no better then a £30 camera after it has been bashed on a rock.

You can seriously suggesting you a phone as an action camera in extreme sports?

And a BMW 5 series is no better than a Fiat after being wrapped around a tree. But the fact of the matter is that a GoPro would probably take a bigger hit from a bigger rock and that is important in 'action cameras'

White wine......now theres a dreadful drink if ever there was one.

Snapzz........?

No comment as yet from snapzzz so I'll cover this one :D

Best white wine I've enjoyed in recent times was a Sauvignon Blanc from the Dog Point Vineyard in New Zealand. Not cheap at circa £14 but very very nice. Tony - treat yourself to a bottle and come back and tell us how you got on....

No thanks. Complete and utter waste of time. I have tried all different types of whites: Pinot, Chenin, hell even some chavvy Chardonnay! I don't even like Chablis. White wine just isn't for me, irrespective of the colour :wink: Give me the pink stuff anyday.

To be honest i drink any wine but mainly white. Why? Because i like a refreshing gulp and i just can't do that with a room temp red.
I agree that there are some truly shocking ones though and i especially steer clear of the chardonnays. in my local they are selling a house white and it truly tastes like p*** but then so does the house red.
For me there is much snobbery around wine, perhaps we need to take a trip to C1850 and discuss it with some of the toffs there?
Just like skiing i much prefer doing it than talking about it.
