  1. It’s always refreshing to see films without Ewan McGregor in!

    • Hi Nikos,

      Yes quite agree, though after another several videos from me you may change your mind lol.

      Cheers,

      Dave….

  2. Another good one Dave, keep em coming its very quiet in the office this time of year lol

    Owen

  3. My first day back at work and I have three videos to watch, you must have been busy over the holidays LOL

  4. wow David that is perfect.
    happy new year from now!. I think ı can’t see you before the new year.

    • Hi Theo,

      I’ve been to your office a few times, but you were not there, another holiday, or are you sick again??

      Well Best wishes for a happy and prosperous New Year, if I dont see you before.

      Cheers,

      Dave….

  5. Hurrah………a decent tuneee!!!!! (Steppenwolf) lol

    Nikos – and what is wrong with Ewan McGregor?? He was in Star Wars you know!!!! 😉

    Happy New Year to you Dave and Linda…….and to everybody else who reads this too

    • Hi Aunty Bev,

      Had to move to Vimeo, the music censorship on Youtube is a real pain!!
      My knowledge of music is almost as great as my ballfoot kicking knowledge, if you and Ian can think of some songs for the next three vids, it would be much appreciated, otherwise its going to be ”Honda,Honda,faster,Faster” for them all lol.

      Cheers,

      Dave…..

  6. Hoy dave, That Vimeo seems a bit better quality on full screen or is just that I’m going a bit p.c blind with all this hard work I’m doing in the workshop today……NOT !!
    I’ll think of a couple of good tracks you can use tonight.

    Ian.

    • Hi Ian,

      Thanks for that, it’ll be a couple of hours before I’m ready for the tracks to go on (I’m going to have an emergency power nap first) anything that teenagers would like is most probably not suitable lol. Whens your Mrs. going to finish your blog, you’ve been stuck in Athens for weeks!!!

      Cheers,

      Dave….

  7. Dave:

    Excellent Video. Nice scenery and weather on your travels. I’m going to have to check out Vimeo, or should I wait a while to see if they silence your sound first. LOL.

    also I want to mention that Linda’s video is first class too. She is quite the animator, I suppose you take after her . . . the creative side of the family so to speak. You are so lucky that she puts up with you

    luv

    • Hi Bob,

      You started drinking early for New Year…..”Puts up with me”……the other way round my old son!!!

      Its not just WMG that filters YT, they have also allowed EMI to filter also, as I found out this morning, so gave up with YT and gone over to Vimeo where there isno filtering as yet!! Some foreign corperation based in China, Russia or here, where there is no copyright law could take over very quickly from YT who must be very vulnerable right now!!

      Cheers,

      Dave….

  8. What do you mean when am I going to finish HIS blog??? It’s MY BLOG!!!!

    • Hi Aunty Bev,

      Sorry for the mistake, I just assumed Ian was the ”Guiding Hand,” as all men are lol

      Cheers,

      Dave….

  9. A couple of slow ones :

    Maybe Tomorrow

    Step on my old size nines and I’ll take a ride.

    Or a couple of Bikers Rock clasics

    Wishing Well

    or Ezy Rider by Jimi Hendrix

    Have FUN……

    Ian.

    • Hi Ian,

      Thanks for the links I shall have a look now and put them in episode 5 and 6, 4 is already swimming around cyberspace.

      Cheers,

      Dave….

    update: Vimeo is being sued for audio infringement too. won’t be long before all videos will have NO sound

    http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/news/2009/12/vimeo-sued-have-staffers-uploaded-infringing-content.ars

    You had better learn how to play a harmonica really fast to make your own audio track

    I have had problems with audio on Youtube, with them taking away my sound. That was the reason I stopped making videos for a long time. I had another plan and I have a library of original works that I will be using soon. You have to be careful of copywrited materials, so I only “go” for original music in public places, such as outdoor stuff (Not concerts where you have to pay to be admitted). My videos have their own sound, but when I take a lot of still pictures to make a slide show I will have copywrite free music to play.

    you could also check out:

    jamendo.com for royalty free music, I have used some of this music before.

    ps: Linda is the best. ( <– she forced me to post this)

    • Hi Bob,

      Hhmmm…wouldn’t it be interesting if Mrs.Bob started her own blog!!!!

      Refer to previous post/moan/whine about YT and Vimeo lol, some enterprising Russian will take over!!

      Cheers,

      Dave…(The guiding Hand of Linda)

    • …Yep read the article, Vimeo do not accept commercials or commercial/selling/advertising videos, the bloke should have read the small print (which is actually quite large) he got caught out and is now whining like a little girl…just get another host and move on!!

      Cheers,

      Dave….

  12. Dave:

    it’s me again. Read this, I think Vimeo is going to be forced to shutdown.

    • …Where do you find all this stuff…well TUDO in China is rubbish,so guess we just all have to wait for the enterprising Russian to take over video hosting lol

      Cheers,

      Dave…still uploading to Vimeo untill he finds an alternative lol.

    • Bob,Bob….just been looking, there are dozens of Russian hosting sites,nice quality,no copyright…The biggest is called RUTUBE..

      Cheers,

      Dave…..

  13. Dave:

    Rutube.ru looks interesting. Videos are clear, but I will have to take russion lessions first. could be years before I can post . . .
