Some people do grow them in their conservatory or greenhouse - they would need a lot of looking after in the cold.

I love taking picture's, Skillen, when i had the pub two chap's used to come in who were photographer's & one of them got me my first camera, a Cannon EOS 300, which take's the most wonderful pic's but you have to have the film developed. The second one i got & still use is a Fuji FinePix S20. The pic's come out really nice & the Macro is good. I just stick it on auto most of the time.I do prefer the old SLR's though.

Can you still get films developed? My mum is adamant that you can't which I find hard to believe.

Ha ha, yes you can, i'm trying to convert my Dad to digital but it's slow going!!!

Lol M - I thought as much! She said she has asked in all the good photography shops and they have all said they can't do it! I bought her a digital for Christmas and tried to show her how to use it and believe me Maple, THAT was hardgoing!!!!

can't believe that after i uploaded these pic's i went over to Retford to my parent's house for the usual xmas drink's & took my camera. the photo's that came out were, to say the least, "weird". i googled the effect my camera is suffering from "ccd" it will cost a fortune to get mended, £400 down the drain :(
