  Mifsuds look to be the cheapest for the body at the moment, I've used them several times wth no problems. Otherwise Warehouse Express are good.

  http://camerapricebuster.co.uk/ is good for checking prices.

  Just heard that a DH Humming Bird has crashed on landing at Old Warden. Thoughts are with the pilot.

  Not just a DH Humming Bird, but the last airworthy DH Humming Bird :(

  Like that lots, although it's crying out for a silver stem ;)

  Are those early-90s Time pedals?

  It might get a Ti stem at some point to match the Ti seatpost. The pedals are Time RXS Racer, picked mainly for the colour although the use the same cleats as the Time Impacts on my other road bike which is handy.
