The weekend starts here....?

It's the weekend - hurrahhhh!  So what Have I got to look forward to?  A relaxing evening would be nice and then up at the crack of 8am tomorrow morning.  Cutting the grass and having a general tidy-up out there is a must otherwise it'll look even more ahem than it already does plus I'll miss the fornightly green waste collection.  Two bags of rotting grass is not really good in the increasing heat that could pass for mid to late spring.  Goodness, what a life I lead, full of excitement.  Sunday, think I'll hit the road to the great outdoors and see some of this green and pleasant land while I can afford to pollute it all with carbon fumes and emissions.  On the other hand, I'll go out into the grey and indeterminable landscape that was once green...

So I haven't posted anything in a long time, eh?  Here I am and I'm telling you that I am going to put together "Severne", a website dedicated to my video and DVD's and linked off my personal front page.

It's been a while since I did much serious video editing but now is the time to get back into it with the rise of HD.  There in an increasing amount of HD-enabled camcorders and even cameras out these but not too many have too many features yet.  Maybe this is the time to start again and get an HD camcorder.

Trouble is, I already own three digital camcorders, two in normal 4:3 aspect and one widescreen, and I have not had too much use of these in recent years.  This will change, even if it mean going out and doing some personal shoots purely for my benefit - and the getting back into practise of course.

Keep an eye in case my new webpage turns up - and even if you stumble onto this little blog accidentally - not a lot happens but when it does it is, er, less than earth-shattering, I can tell you.  But at least it's fun.

I'm glad this is nearly the middle of Winter - no heating required, windows open and quite a bit damp outside which looks to be clearing into a reasonable sunny day...!

Couldn't resist it....

Here I am again - just in time to double the amount of posts on my blog and report that it has finally stopped raining.  For the moment at least.  Have a great night.
Right then. Finally, I made it to the party, here on my own Blog. Gawd knows what will become of it but for now I can look at it and be satisfied that there is at least one visitor, even if that is myself. Ahem (clears throat noisily).

The rain is thrashing down in Hampshire, some parts of which are on flood alert. during the journey home tonight was difficult to miss the vast oceanic puddles, returning to workin the morning is going to be a fine job at this rate.

By the way, my website is www.adiebarrett.co.uk - yes, rather unimaginative I know, but come on, this is my first post hereabouts and with precious little else to have a look at, take at least a little look at my other reasonably substantial websites which I rescued from various far-flung corners of the 'net before the hosting service went west.

That's that for now. I guess I'll get the hang of this - if I return here even. Ta-ta.
