Sat 110120 Sharon phoned/Received old FujiFilm camera: S602Z from off eBay

My cousin Sharon left me answer machine message asking am I going over there to visit today or not(as we had previously discussed, yesterday)?

2 PM PHONED SHARON

I phoned her back to say, yes, I'm coming.

She said, don't be in a hurry...you can come between 5 to 6 PM...thus, giving me time to get other things done, if necessary; to which I agreed.

(LATEST UPDATE: I did NOT visit Sharon; instead, I fell asleep; and, only awoke around 10:30 PM! I phoned her to explain; said she's going out tomorrow; so, the trip was cancelled.)

2:30 PM RECEIVED AN OLD CAMERA FROM OFF EBAY/UNFORTUNATELY, MY BATTERIES AIN'T WORKING

I brought an old FujiFilm camera from off eBay...the price was just £14.00 + £3.xx P&P.

Unfortunately, when I tried sticking in 4 x AA type batteries in there...; it just didn't work; the camera would come on...; then, almost immediately turn itself off, again.

I need to try testing it using some 'newer' batteries, instead.

LATEST UPDATE: The next day, Sunday, I found some new camera batteries...4 x AA; and, inserted these, successfully...; only to discover that the memory I brought is not the right type. Will need to buy a different type entirely; it uses Compact II Flash type of memory stick.

NOTE: I also brought another S602Z on Sunday; this time it comes with memory stick, already. I believe the cost was around £30.00.
