I can't help with the disc, but what an end to your holiday, its been a bit out of the ordinary before you every got there, but I hope you have some good memories along with all the traumas. I don't think many of my photos, especially at night are any good, (need a new camera - hint! if he reads this) perhaps Gemma33, Irishcolleen or Linb will have some of our meets ups with the blue band brigade.

Sorry Sleep cant help about the disc thingy but once ive sorted out my photos etc I can forward all the ones of us together onto you. (probably after Xmas - hectic just now!)

Thanx girls would love a piccy or 2 of us all together that would be great.The holiday one way and another was'nt stress free but i still enjoyed it (the company we kept had something to do with it)Hope you are keeping well and looking forward to the next one i'm looking now for a cheap one so who knows i might see you AGAIN.
Have a brill xmas and a happy new year.xxxxxxP.s give my love to the boys.Forgot them .xx

It is possible to retrieve data and pictures from a "wiped" memory card because all what happens when you "wipe" or erase the card is that it allows the camera to overwrite the info already on the card.

I had a embarrasing cock up recently when I lent my digi cam to a neighbour telling them not to bother to take their old fashioned film camera as "modern technology - its the way forward" however when they got back from their holidays in Venice the card in the camera had become corrrupted and I thought that they had lost all their pictures.

I managed to download some recovery software and after a lot of messing about managed to retrieve about 90% of the pics.

I think that it is more difficult to do if the card has been Formatted rather than just Erased.

I never did tell my neighbours about just how close they where to having no momentos of Venice!!

If you want to send me the card I'll have a go - no promises though.

we are looking into this just now IC. Give me a pm if there is not a new section in the next few days.(Its a bit hectic for the mod/admin team at the moment as you can imagine)

Irishcolleen youve got some of the names round the wrong way in the wristband photo
It should read: Sleep, Anne (your sister-in-law), Gemma (me!!!), Linb, Irishcolleen (you!!!) and Polly.
Youve obviosuly had one too many coffees

There now I have put it right we all are in our right places now

I dont remember that bit about the gorgeous goa girls. More like the golden girls PS I love your new Christmas avator Irishcolleen, very pretty.

Did you ever get any one to recover the lost pictures?
I have found a programme that was able to recover 117 photos that had been deleted from my memorey card

let me know if you need any help

GM06

have you still got the memory card? and have you taken new pictures on it since wiping the Goa ones off?

Also is the cd brokenas in snappedin half or just can;t be read.

Roxio make a disk rescue program and I'm sure other must...I'd try a freeware download site to se ehwat they have

Hiya guys i've not recovered any piccys and at this present moment i dont know where the disc is it was cut through the one side waiting for my son to come so i know whats happened to the disc. Will let you know more soon thanx for the interest hopefully i'll get some of the pictures back.

I have taken photos on the memory card since i had it swiped.

Just got a message from our son and guess what ! HE THROWED THE DISC AWAY! on hubby's instructions. O/H said he told me about it but i can't remember it (old age) so thats the end of that then...I'll know in march to take great care of my disc and treasure it till i get home.
