I'm surprised nobody has mentioned Heli-x, Windows, Linux and Mac native (Including Apple Silicon native)...

True, although I'm struggling to think of a person/group/organisation who would take it on... One would hope someone will try, and maybe the Bishops will help to hand it over.

The orgnisers just dropped in the conversation on their Facebook page that Weston Park 2025 will be the last one...

So why have dozens of BMFA members been scammed this morning? https://www.facebook.com/share/p/gTPhWEvJkrExxia4/?

No idea, people are trying to work what the link is..

No, nothing to do with that..

I had my debit card scammed this morning, a few pence to a company called 'Lightwatch'. It's now cropped up on the BMFA Facebook group, and dozens of other BMFA members have had the same issue today. Anyone here?

So it would have been OK if it had been a Wot4...?

That fencing (or 8' high netting) is usually used at German shows, I think it should be used here too.

A 5 second google search...

Err... No they didn't. It's simply Sarik passing on the fact that a new publisher (Radio Control Publishing Ltd, which has nothing to do with Sarik) has taken over the rights to RCJI and RCSI. Colin and Marco have are doing this on their own under a new Anglo/Italian company.

The new magazine has nothing to do with Sarik, they are simply helping to promote it - nothing more.

When Tesco as them is stock they print to me just like Canon BUT I am printing "normal" home stuff NOT high quality photo`s. If I want to run unbranded ink in my printer I paid for I should be able to without the thing making it hard for me. I don't have to own brand oil in my car, if I put Halfords oil in my Bentley it wont tell me its wrong or cheap. Printer ink is a con full stop. If their ink was so good and the so called "cheap free meal ones" rubbish no one would buy the unbranded BUT they DO because most people who don't need photo quality etc , see no difference. You're missing the point. Yes you can put any oil you like in your Ford or your Bently, that's your perogative. But if you do, Ford or Bentley will void your warranty if it isn't the exact brand and type stipulated in the manuals - just as a printer manufacturer will when they find cheap ink in your printer... The real point that people forget is that for years printer manufacturers have been in a race to the bottom to keep their printer costs down, then make the profits on the ink. They protect this with chips to detect non-OEM ink. And who can blame them? Perhaps youd rather pay £500 for the printer and get the ink cheap?

Slightly ammused to see that as usual people want something for nothing. Does it occur to anyone that the 'cheap' aftermarket print cartridges are cheap for a reason? Yes, printer OEMs charge more for their chipped cartridges, and yes, they want to make a profit. Part of their problem is that people buy the printer, stick cheapo cartridges in it then expect the OEM to sort out any issues under warranty caused by bad ink. Hence the chips. In my experience some cheap cartridges can work OK, but the majority cause more problems than they solve, are usualy actually contain half the ink than a real one has, then cost more money in the long run. No such thing as a free lunch...

You don't end up tilting your head at all, your eyes and brain adapt. Within a week, the readers went in the bin...
