In Tesco you'll get a 568ml bottle for 45c. So 9 bottles (5.1L) will cost €4.05.

I'm pretty sure the Asian shop in Westside near Aldi has the big bottles of vinegar.

Maybe try adverts? You can filter by Galway and then by desktops/laptops.

Tks, had a look, but I dont know the area well, so im concerned as how to know who is a rip off merchant and who isn't.

Massive thread in Motor forum
But you should probably post in DIY section as it's likely an easy fix you can do yourself.

I don't licencing laws allow for it. You might get a hotel residents drink but that's about it.

Well you could try attaching the camera itself to a pc using the cable that came with the camera.
Or you could take the memory card out of the camera and feed it into the Pc. This will require a memory card reader on the Pc or an adapter.
