I was going to be more tolerant towards fools but being myself, bugger it I will vote to stay my same grumpy self and continue to get in trouble as usual. I may even try to smoke a few more and drink a little extra. I tried to find bad woman but they run too fast.

All the best for the new Year you fools.

Jen,

1. to lose the tummy that I've acquired over the last 8 months by going to the gym like I used to;
2. to regain my fitness and run 10km;
3. To get my photography business up and running;
4. To acquire more L-series glass;
5. To engage in more astrophotography (the last image I took was in November, 2007);
6. To finish processing my images from my trip to Europe and print a coffee table book.

There's more, but, that's a start.

Regards,
Humayun

Who ever said that a New Years Resolution had to be to better yourself?
Life is way too short, and so long as you take responsibility for your actions, and try not to hurt anyone else on the way, enjoy it how you will.

Well, I am now forty, so I get to become a real grumpy old *******. I think I will enjoy that a lot

Anyway, my main one is to loose about 15 Kg of fat, and to get some level of healthiness. I don't have a plan for that, and fat camps are not for me

The other resolution is to spend less time piss farting around on the internet...

Hi Jen, Hi All,

My resolution for 2009 is to buy a whopping great big 12 inch Skywatcher SW980 or collapsible 12 inch dob. I took a gander at the 12 inch collapsible today and fell in love.....

So I suppose, my resolution is to buy a bigger scope so that I can get more.....resolution?

If thats working in circles then just call me PI.

Cheers

Chris
