Short video from a recent retirement village trip to Ambury Park.  No bluebells, it's a very different park.  Title "Animal Afternoon" https://vimeo.com/704061421

Thanks Albert.  Yes Kent is often described as the Garden of England.

Thanks Gordon.  The Europe situation also has me very unsettled at present.

Sorry Jack, it's way over my head.  I just don't get the joke.

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.

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.
