Am just (trying to) read the Dutch immigration stuff, it's making my head spin and I'm just about to chew my arm off :-) Think I'll just get the other half to explain it !

Floyd were one of two bands (Genesis w/ Gabriel being the other) that I wish I'd seen live.

Saw Waters in Manchester a few years ago and the gig was excellent, would love to see one of The Wall gigs but the timing isn't great.

Have only seen the Mule once as they don't get over here that often - was lucky a few years ago that they managed a full UK tour and did a gig in Newcastle at the City Hall, they're a cult band over here really so only about 300 people turned up, it ended up being pretty intimate...only slight downs...

I have two Sigmas (Canon fit for a 50d and 350d), a 70-200mm 2.8 and 24-70mm 2.8, mostly used for gig photography, both are excellent.

Funny you should mention that, was drinking it on holiday a couple of weeks ago, was okay but I couldn't drink more than 2-3 bottles at once, bit too sickly. Albert Heijn had a nice one that was similar but a bit cheaper and another one in the same range that had Mojito flavouring instead of Tequila...

Purmerend :-)

30 minutes to Amsterdam on the bus, big enough to have everything I want, not too big to be too impersonal though.

Just needs a Nandos and we're done :-)

Registered with quite a few agencies and most of them haven't even responded, had one get back to me last week about a possible job, but haven't heard from them since. They said they got my details from Monste...
