I need a picture of a city, at night, and the shot has to be taken from ground level, or taken off the roof of a building.

Any city in particular? If it's the old smoke itself you could try these of mine

1. Dusk looking downstream from Waterloo bridge


2. Houses of Parliament at night


3. Wheel at night - but note the image has quite a lot of noise in it so you may not be able to enlarge too much without it becoming too noticeable


Cheers

Chris

No, 'He wants himself...' Not 'He want is himself'.


The good news is that you can tell your dad that he *can* have a V8 Cerbera - they were first made with AJP 4.2 and 4.5 engines

Ambition, I like it. Suggest you start with something like a 350i to get some TVR experience under your belt (insurance companies are scared of newbies because if you're going to kill yourself it ususally happens in Year One) - then work up from there. You'll still have to be 21 before they'll touch you, I reckon.

Or maybe get your dad's V8S for a good price when he upgrades...

However, be warned. Simpo's First Law of Cars states: 'When you can afford the car you always wanted, you don't want it any more - you want something more expensive.'

Is the Second Law 'And when you think you've got a car you can enjoy and afford, something expensive will break on it to remind you that you can't afford it after all'?

Nope, the Second Law is 'Buy privately and keep the change for things that may go pop'.

U wot?

Parkour, otherwise known as free running. The art of running around city centres/built up areas and using the scenery to help you make progress. The most widely advertised example was the BBC1/2 advert where the guy runs across loads of rooftops to get to his TV before a prog starts.

If you don't know what I'm talking about (but it seems your friend will) have a look at:
www.parkour.com
www.urbanfreeflow.com

However, I don't advise you try any of this as it bloody hurts if you get it wrong!

Good luck with your project!

I always thought it odd that Society tells us to drive at 29mph to make us 'safe', then shows people jumping across office blocks.

Sense 0, fashion 1?
