Because of the accent? How bizarre.

Aye, watching films is fine but speaking to an American in person really does my head in after a while.

And impossible on your budget.

Indeed.

I don't want a lens being mistaken for a rocket launcher

I'm sure the feeling is mutual, and not because of the accent

I was tempted to put something like "bit like our relationship Fox"

Vietnam is an amazing place. Hanoi is manic but cool Halong bay is very nice, was foggy when i went. You could always travel south nd checkout the Mekong Delta, Ho Chi Minh City for your war fix plenty of photo ops.

Not sure how scorza spent £1000 tho lol

Also Cambodia has some stunning scenery as do heaps of destinations throughout south east Asia.

Are you looking for scenery or wildlife or just spitballing thinking about ideas?

Been having a look and a chat with a guy at work...

Borneo is sounding awesome :cool:

A guy at work spent 18months there, he brought in his photos today and I've had a flick through them....the place just looks incredible. Even through the eyes of a camera not taken by a pro.

I'm going :cool:
