I never thought I’d be singing the praises of Facebook (FB). In fact I still don’t think I’ll be singing their praises exactly, but I will say this about FB: without it I doubt that I’d have been back in touch with my friend Paul H. Addie. We used to play in bands together in London back in the eighties. Then I met Genie (at a gig where Paul and I were playing) and went to live in Holland – for good, I thought at the time. Paul also moved on, and remember this was before the wibbly-wobbly world of web and electronic mail.
It was through FB that Paul H Addie and I got back in touch. I’ve also found other friends (or they’ve found me) through FB, but the reason I mention Paul is that he’s still making music and we could actually work together without the inconvenience of having to travel the length of the island to meet up (although it would be nice, of course, to meet up again).
Anyway, I made this video for Paul’s band Tracing Arcs and I hope you like it.
Last week I edited Genie’s video footage of Gordon McNeill-Wilkie and myself back in 2007. The resulting short movie is now on YouTube. This is how I’d like to remember Gordon.
I have finally edited my footage of the fireworks display which celebrated the 200th anniversary of the opening of Dunkeld Bridge. And here’s the movie, just in time for the 202nd anniversary!
Many of you will remember how windy it was that day. There was some doubt as to whether the fireworks display would go ahead, yet hundreds of us turned up at Dunkeld Cathedral in the evening. Blast Design, who put on the display, also provided the climax to the Perth 800 festivities on 26th November 2010. Here are a couple of photos Genie took that snowy evening on Tay Street, Perth.
