IAC DISCUSSION FORUMS

We are slowly dropping adverts - still and movie - on Facebook.
Do you like them?

So sorry ... hope the trip can be rescheduled.

We also suffered horror today ... a day without internet! Well almost a day, it is on again now 11pm.

Thank goodness we have a stock of DVDs and a player!

Have a great time. Some of my childhood holidays were in Galloway with an aunt who ran a one-teacher primary school and an uncle who was a joiner and the local undertaker.

Hurrah! Please - all readers - consider making two trips to Birmingham in 2025: BIAFF the weekend 25th - 27th April UNICA the week 17th - 22nd August The events are similar but different(!) You know the BIAFF format. UNICA begins on Sunday with an orientation day so that visitors can find their way ...

Dear Martin ... welcome to the ranks of "daft buggers" who have kept IAC afloat for so many decades!

It was a great pleasure to meet Werner and An and to have time for a quick chat in the super cafe at the Cultural Centre in Poznan last week. We were also stewing in hot moist air with temperatures in the mid 30s. No ladies buried in sand, but lots of stylish people of both sexes (all sexes?) enjoyi...

Martin: One or more of the website's certificates is invalid. Everyone else: If your anti-virus software allows you to ignore such a warning, you can do so safely, at least so far as I know.

Why are they willing to pay a lot of money to squash in with a crowd to hear bands playing? Yet they can hear the music better in their ...

Why should there be?

Who cares when a film was made, so long as it does its job?

My worst experience with editing software was some years ago. I was to be on the jury for a film festival in Austria and the organisers insisted that each jury member bring a film they had made, which would be evaluated by the audience! I don't make competition films as a rule, but decided to try. M...
