Lost on me Alfred. Who are Peter and Julia?
It's amazing that our ancestors could create such intricate wonderful buildings yet couldn't deal with human waste.
Thanks. Again the cars spoil the view!
You look young. No grey hairs yet?
Thanks Albert. Fascinating. Remove the vehicles and road signs, and replace the tarmac with cobbles and it would be like stepping back into the past.
Thanks Albert. As an ex UK cyclist it was of great interest. Obviously a windy day and the occasional wind noise added to the atmosphere.
10 years ago - a lot has happened since then and not for the better.
Thanks Albert, well done. That haunting music again.
I've just remembered I used LKG for a video with a story - The Savage Memorial https://vimeo.com/31242702
It's only Standard definition so the picture quality isn't great.
Hi Vicki
Another track of Kevin's that inspires me is "Majestic Hills".
Music can help. When humanity along with its problems eventually disappear from this planet I visualise the sound of a great orchestra and haunting human voices closing the final curtain on our existence.
"Last Kiss Goodnight", a track by Kevin MacLeod always haunts me and you can hear it here, along with some pretty pictures to accompany it. https://vimeo.com/98603064
The article states "as a way to create more daylight hours during warmer months"!!! Doesn't say much for the intelligence of the writer. More daylight hours comes from the earth's orbit not from moving our clocks.
In NZ we are permanently on by half an hour and in summer another additional hour. I wish we just compromised by being permanently on by an hour so I didn't have to adjust clocks and other gadgets twice a year.
Yes Albert, the situation gets more depressing every day.
Another "Garden" video - Eden Garden https://vimeo.com/74812556. Again I probably posted it a few years ago on the old Serif Forum.
It's quiet on this thread at the moment. The current world situation doesn't help. But then I grew up in a city that was considerably bombed and what I see on TV brings back memories, also of the cold war period. So I'm not motivated at present.
Anyway here's an old video, a 2014 "Garden" video which I probably posted back on the Serif forum. It's a bit different to Albert's NT Visits - Ngatea Water Garden https://vimeo.com/84111231
I still have WebPlus X5 which I used for my personal website a few years ago. Unfortunately Webring where I had it have disappeared and I haven't found another free hosting site where I can upload pages to. Most free sites require you to use their web creators.
But then websites are becoming a thing of the past as nowadays folk prefer to use Facebook etc.
I still have DPX5 installed on my Win 10 desktop. X5 is probably 11 years old now judging by the dates on its startup screen. I rarely use it nowadays as I don't have much use for vector drawings. It came in handy last year helping a daughter with something which I needed to open in DP. I cannot now remember what it was, but then I get frequent requests for help most of which require work in PhotoPlus.
This section of the forum looks deserted. So I'm just posting to say that for the occasional photo editing that I do PhotoPlus X5 still serves me well along with PhotoPlus Organizer.
I'm confused. You mention a pc not tablet so don't you have a proper keyboard you can type on?
I've been up to the Sky Tower restaurant in years past. It revolves while you eat. I'm not good with heights.
Another short village trip. This time on a ferry across to the city.

One advantage of the van trips is that you aren't driving. As drivers we miss a lot. For example I've driven up our Northern Motorway near here hundreds of times but only now, as a passenger, noticed there is a totem pole not far from the motorway. Apparently it came from Canada https://kura.aucklandlibraries.govt.nz/ … /id/33789/ As a driver I never noticed because I'm looking ahead. It's visible on Google Street View.
Albert, you will find the music here
Possibly Serif and YouTube got it from the same source.
Interestingly I've recently noticed a local TV station using background music which I recognise as being on an "Amateur Cine World" (UK magazine in the 1960s) copyright free for amateurs mood music LP that I purchased in UK in 19667/68.
I wasn't the only male resident on that trip. There was one other. Most Village "Out'n About" trips do have mainly female residents participating. On occasions I have been the only male, apart from our driver. Many of the ladies have husbands/partners but you don't see much of them. Their males prefer to play bowls or spend time in the workshop (mens' shed). The workshop is very well equipped with gadgets that are way beyond my DIY. Reminiscent of the TV "Repair Shop".
Thanks Albert for Sheffield Park. Very colourful. Again I recognise the music - Afterglow from Serif's MVPX6 QuickMovies. We have similar tastes in music as I've used it but forget where.
Another short video of a recent Village trip. A bit of chit chat in this one but it shows what many of our beaches are like. Very different from Brighton Beach. No deck chairs or sticks of rock to purchase.
Mahurangi Regional Park https://vimeo.com/676696663/a352d1d480
I’ve just stumbled upon this lovely little clip.
So much like a large pussy cat.
There’s just one tiny problem, Eric: you omitted the all-important string of smilies when you quoted me.
Sorry but it's because they mean little to me. They're just funny faces. The meaning of most isn't apparent. When using your page of smilies I have to look at the file name to find what it is.
