That's very cheap Bob. Is it any good?

Yes, pretty good.

It's 1080, full HD. :cool:

(Can you read car number plates from a reasonable distance when you play back?)

Yes, but not so far in the dark, as the LED lights have a limited range.

Mind you, you would have to be pretty close to another vehicle/person, to be in collision with them, so distance isn't a major issue.

Only problem I'm having is, although it says:-

Loop-cycle recording overwrite allows unwanted footage to be automatically recorded over without the need to manually delete out-of-date files.

I just received a "SD Card Full" message.

Not a major problem (I just need to format the card every few days), but a bit confusing :huh:

GQ hope you are OK?.

I'm fine, my lovely. Am reading a fantasy epic (14 volumes! Just finished 11th) which is taking up a fair bit of my time. Plus the pesky job and a few chores and sleeping........:rotfl:

I'll admit to being bored with EU referendum - not just here, but everywhere and the thought that there's another 4+ months of spin, lies and distortions to come really doesn't appeal - but its life, its actually important and whichever way it goes there will be consequences that affect us all. None of that is why I'm posting less at the moment, my week is split between writing tender documents, a charity funding proposal, re-organising my workshop and sawing timber. I'm still reading and will post occasionally.

:)I'm not even bothering to have the radio on (don't have telly) and am spending my leisure time on reading, chatting with pals, knitting and readying the allotment for the growing season.

Regardless of what the Republi-critters or Demon-rats are doing in US-landia, the spuds are going in at the end of this month, and all has to be in readiness.

Plus the days are lengthening, the bulbs are out, I saw primroses 3 weeks ago! I love the changing of the seasons and have seen blackbirds out on the carpark with beaks full of nesting materials, too.

Tell me abaht it!

I just don't get it when people say they're bored, the world is full of interesting stuff, I don't think I could be bored if I was awake 24/7.

DAM!! I have been rumbled:D

It will be one gob full for me, and the rest of the doughnut for them

Thanks ivyleaf..

Pigs are flipping stubborn, and even when they are small they are heavy lol..

Have you heard in the news, they are trying to close the loophole about not needing a TV license when watching catch up etc.. On any type of format,TV, laptop, phone etc...and it could happen within months

It's only taken me a few years to actually talk hubby around to agreeing to ditch watching TV .and watch it all on catch up..

It's looking like it will only apply to BBC I-Player.

BTW. I object to the word "loophole".

It's not a loophole. It's simply the way the law was drafted.

I'm glad you've clarified the doughnut situation, I was on the verge of asking.:rotfl:

Whilst I can count on the fingers of both hands the number of times I have availed myself of i-player, so won't miss it, I really think the beeb are taking the s0dding biscuit.

They charge students for TV licenses. They didn't used to do that. There are an awful lot of students and that's an awful lot of extra moolah.

As a pal of mine says, with enough scorn to strip paint, what's all this Strictly Come Prancing and Cake Programmes?!

Well, they've got to get back the cost of all those over-75 Licences, they're now responsible for.

All those bottles of Champagne, and unused taxis, have to be paid for somehow.

Sorry for using the L word..

Tbh I could def live without watching the beeb, as you say GQ its only come prancing, cakey bakey programmes and a bit of far fetched family living a few times a week..

I don't think Republicans actually know what his policies are.

Remarkable though it may seem, The Donald is too liberal in his views for most Republicans, and that, rather than bizarre campaigning is what is likely to stop him reaching the White House even though he looks increasingly likely to be the Republican nomination. The failure of the party to get behind a more credible candidate is what has let him get this far. There is a direct correlation between negative advertising and electoral turnout (to defend the preferred and "defamed" candidate, and that is what is most likely to be driving the frenzy of support at the moment, not real support.
