Never mind the soap opera where's the t.v.

[tremone]

Why are there no more videos on the Self sufficientish tv. According to the spiel filming was taking place faster than Spielberg could muster and soon we'd be inundated with a range of shows on various topics.
How is Andy's allotment getting along?
Did the twins pick up an incorrect mushroom and are they now in the land of the purple bunny rabbits?
Can Dave chop an onion without crying?

And what of the other members, why can't we gawk into your goings on.
A llok around Stoneheads croft, Nev bathing in the solar bath and so on.

So come on, why make up a soap opera when your own lives are so fascinating, get filming.

Cheers for the interest! There are some films to go up, it is just so damb frustrating trying to get them up on my computer! - The hourglass (well beachball on a mac) pops up when using word sometimes. It is so slow. Editing film means that I have time to play a game of sloitaire in between each thing that I do, needless to say I have just about given up with it. NO excuse I know. - In fact I might see if I can borrow a better computer for an afternoon.

Very busy week for the rest of this one, hopefully should calm down by next week so will have another bash then. Also the person with a camera has moved nearer to my house so it will be easier to film some more. Expect another mushroom hunt, the harvesting of my potatoes in tyres and perhaps even making soya milk and making a solar oven might be fun. - I would love to see films of people here on that site too so if anyone wants to give me a disk????

So yep coming soon......

By the way have you heard of an Irish eco-newspaper called The Local Planet? - We are in the recent edition and I have not seen it yet.

Andy,
I had a gander at their website www.localplanet.ie and you're on the contents list for the latest issue, I've never heard of it before but i'll have a look for it, to be honest Eco magazines would not have a big readership up here but maybe if I delve my way past Hello & OK & Woman's own there just might be one next to flyfishing by J.R. Hartley.

Good luck,
Tremone

p.s. try filming on less windy days, the interference is fierce. Excellent topics so far, looking forward to more. I had the volume too loud on the first one I looked at, I'm sure the offices next to me were wondering why I was playing funky monkey at that level. No-one complained though
