it's Christmas morning. :)

Cheers,

a subscriber to this list for a while and was very interested in getting an

Rico and New York (hey, it was cheaper this way although meant a lot of
flying), I had time to wander around a shopping mall in San Juan and spotted
the camera in a small, humble photo store complete with lens for just 800ukp
equiv. Now that is the sort of price difference making it worth while not
worrying about international warranties. I bought a cheap 512Mb CF card,
through all of the boxes away and started using... now was I supposed to
declare this to customs when I came back into UK?
