lol Actually it's not birthday money. I used to be a cyclist, but started gymming in the meantime and now I'm totally hooked. So, the bike was just standing at home and I decided to sell it ;0)) So, I have all this money now and waiting for a friend of ours to go on vacation next month to Europe. He'll bring me the Canon back with him. The cameras are way too expensive to buy in SA. :0))
