That has been one of the most exciting races we've had this season, even more so than the last one at Silverstone

Nice break now till Spa at the end of next month and somehow Lewis is still leading the championship

Let's hope Snetterton and the touring cars give us as much entertainment in a fortnights time

Impressive "stuff" as the yooof would say.
How long did it take to put that together?
Those ones Ray, come off the shelf as part of the iMovie package and take around 20 minutes to put together once the video has been downloaded from the camera. The films which are not part of iMovie and are much longer can take anything of up to a week to edit. I can spend many hours listening to the music tracks. A shame I am unable to hear Jessica or the phone

I recently made a mess of a film I shot at the last meet at Halfway House in Essex. I had set the cam at 4K the highest resolution and did not check the frame rate. The cam had set it at 11.99 frames per second. A complete disaster, as the frames came out shuddery. This means that when I am better, I will revisit Halfway House for another crack at it

I was going to get myself a quad copter to film from the air, but changed my mind. They are illegal in Kenya, punishable by prison/heavy fines/deportation. The spoil sports.

Had my leg not been playing up earlier this week, I was half tempted to drive down from North Wales and call in for a cuppa and rarebit

It's been wet cold and miserable here all day

The garden needed it though

The same as yourself Jeff, rain on and off chilly and wet. I am in bed all day. The best place to be. I am weaning myself off these pain killers as they drop my blood pressure and make me feel sleepy most of the time, plus they are listed as an offence to take whilst driving.

That is a shame, but what about turning into black and white and adding a silent movie soundtrack to it?

That surprises me, I'd have thought they would have been more relaxed there.
What's the latest on the storm damage by the way, any developments?

I'm sure we could have managed that, although some notice would have been required as neither of us take milk in drinks so there is rarely any in the house!

No milk on your Cornflakes either

Been dry and reasonably bright here but the wet stuff is forecast to start anytime soon. Just had little Abs out for a wee wander, doesn't need much exercise with her "Ernie Wise" legs, short and hairy!
