Re: 2008 Festival Results
The three main UK festivals which welcome amateur entries (BIAFF, Cotswold and Guernsey) have now all released their results.

Re: 2008 Festival Results
The three main UK festivals which welcome amateur entries (BIAFF, Cotswold and Guernsey) have now all released their results. So what do you all think? Were the judges pretty much right or not? Dave [/i] The Yellow Jersey I only took part in BIAFF and the Lily, not in the Cotswolds festival. Reason...

CRASH !!!
Crash !!! In the last three weeks I crashed with my Medion Computer four times. It was only four years old. Each time I could not switch it on anymore and I called the 'computer doctor'. He called himself like that in a newspaper advertisement. After these visits I had paid him 300 euros which is a...

Re: DVD Burners
St. Martin's I checked the names of the islands on internet. Of course it was not St. Margaret's, but St. Martins. We just had a walk on that narrow island. I remember I filmed some flowers in hedges. It was a glorious day. The sun was shining. The sky was blue. When we came back home in Belgium, o...

Unbelievable ! In fact it's unbelievable. Maybe you know that I am also a member of a second club. I'm just a member there. Not the president or secretary ... Last week the president of Videoclub Deurne, as it is called, received a letter telling him that he had to leave his clubhouse. It was on th...

(Sorry I go on. I pressed the wrong button)
but more and more n-c filmmakers and photogrpahers are ignored. The photographs in our national magazine are impressive ? I was surprised that an article appeared about BIAFF 2008.

Personally I remain convinced that there will always be a place for well run video clubs and groups. Human beings are just not designed to work in isolation in their own little silos and in whatever walk of life any activity is much more enjoyable when shared with other people. Most amateur music b...

It sounds as if the Council might be trying to price local clubs and societies out of their premises so that the Council will then have rooms available that they can rent out to commercial organisations at much higher fees. Too expensive Maybe you are right. I also think that they want to rent out ...

Re: Can clubs look outwards?
Orpington Club are celebrating their 40th anniversary by going en masse to the Guernsey Lily Festival this year. Some of them are already outward looking people but for others it may be a happy surprise. It is hard to explain quite why making a change from the same friendly faces and routines can b...
