Yes, indeed. May 2005 bring happiness and prosperity to everyone. I hope Nikon doesn't bring out too many new models & lenses - I'll need to start printing money.
*IDEA* Hey Birddog, do you know where I can buy a roll of that photo-paper they use at the Australian Mint? :lol: :lol: :lol:

Likewise.

I would like to wish everyone a safe festive season and a prosperous new year.

Drive carefully over the holiday season. Take plenty of breaks if you are driving far.

Don't drink and drive.

Take care all and i'll see you in the new year.

All,

It's hard to believe that another year has come and gone. The last few months here have been simply amazing; thank you all for your contributions and for making this forum the enjoyable place to spend some time that it, clearly, has become for many of us.

Keep safe and well over the holidays, enjoy some special time with those closest to you, and enjoy using your cameras.

I would like to extend a 'MERRY CHRISTAMS & HAPPY NEW YEAR' to everyone.
For those who do not celebrate Christmas 'HAPPY HOLIDAY SEASON'.

May all or some of your gifts carry the Nikon badge.

Mine will, from me to me :lol:

A special thanks to all the personnel who have made this forum possible. I do not want to get into names, in case I leave someone out.

Happy Chrismukkah (Hannakah and Chrismas combined). Well that at least covers the jews and christians... And happy festive season to people of all other religions! May it bring peace and unity within your family & friends. And if you're travelling on the roads, please drive safely and have extra courtesy as the concentration of d*ckhead drivers increase exponentially.

Hope the new year brings new opportunities. There can only be one 2004, so make the most of it while it's still "this year"!!

Just adding my wishes that all have a safe and happy holiday season. Remember to put down the x-mas ham long enough to take a few shots, but don't so many shots you miss out on spending quality time with those close to you.

Thanks go out to all those who make this forum possible, either with material contributions or just by being kind friendly folk.

Peace & Love,
Dean.

p.s. Why does this thread sound like everyone is leaving for the summer and wont be posting?

At this time of year I always thank my friends for their friendship over the preceding 12 months (I usually give them some of my home made chocolates or preserves). While I've only been here a short time I'm already starting to feel that you guys are my friends too - so...

Thanks for your help and inspiration

Maybe in the New Year I'll see some of you in person (hell I might even bring some choccies for you - I'm that sort of a guy :P )
