In the words of my latest TV hero 'Saxondale', max out all my credit cards and then fake my own death.

Ah, Reggie Perrin. Those were the golden days of British Comedy. Tommy Saxondale has huge potential though. (Sorry to sideline the thread by the way).

On a more serious note, I can relate to what Mark says, but of course you still have to count all that flashy stuff we have to buy before we shoot anything.

That's why I started building camera cranes and grip equipment out of matchsticks, string and elastoplast.
