Hello Bob,

  BD> Even grew some peppers in one of those, in Atlanta Georgia.  

I've driven around the Atlanta ring road in the rain, and also visited
Atlanta Zoo, which was excellent. I liked the view of Atlanta from the top
of Stone Mountain too.

Thanks, I'll have a google around for that.  Taking some time to look at
the camera now, I think I have wrapped my head around the apature, and
exposure controls and found where to set the film speed (I've found an
ON/OFF switch too! :-)

On the front of the camera, on the right-hand side (lens pointing away from
me) is a slide switch with S.T. and AEL positions.  I don't know what that
does.

Hmm... I've just tried loading a roll of film, but for some reason the film
advance lever doesn't seem to work.  I hope that I haven't bought another
SLR 'lemon' :-/
