Thanks for the tooth advice guys, i will look into finding one as soon as i can!

As for the camera, it's a little Ricoh GX100. I picked that because i knew if i had a big DSLR i'd never bother bringing it anywhere. The Ricoh is cool because it has all the manual controls of an SLR but still fits in my pocket. it also has a super wide 24mm lense which i love. i don't know why all cameras don't have wide lenses!
If you're wondering about the 'fish-eye' photo at the top, it's just a bunch of photos stitched together using autostitch.
