This is a video of Leonardslee Gardens, a place we visited a month or so back. It's quite a long piece, almost 18 minutes in length. The reason I'm posting it is because of the effects it uses, the link starts around two minutes in. https://youtu.be/XrZEctEeRuA?t=111

I guess that it is achieved by using some kind of fish-eye lens, it's quite effective, almost like using a kaleidoscope. The effect is repeated a few minutes later.

What do you think of it?

Thanks Eric, I enjoy your 'out and about' videos.

Is it my imagination, but the sound quality on your voice over seems to be different somehow, not quite so mellow as usual, anybody else notice it, or is it just me?

Looking forward to watching your efforts Gordon - best of luck with it.

In complete contrast, here is another garden that we managed to visit last Tuesday called Borde Hill, again situated in West Sussex. No animals this time, just the odd robin scavenging for crumbs from our yummy yummy cakes!!

Hope you enjoy it. https://youtu.be/B8r_YppjGps

An unusual rendition of Mozart's "Turkish March". Bamboozled me!

It's the first time we had been Gordon, I can't even remember where I had heard about it, I think it may have been a video on You Tube but I cannot be sure. Glad you and Eric enjoyed it, I wonder what it's like other times of the year. I know we didn't see it all, for example, we didn't see the deer park or the rockery garden.  Well worth a return visit.

Our aforementioned 'fun day out' took place last Friday. We made another first time visit, this time to West Sussex, a place called Leonardslee Lakes & Gardens.
It was one of the most colourful  places we have ever been to. As you go through the entrance a wall of colour hits you hard and you start to think if my newly formatted 64Gb card will be enough to capture the sheer magnificence of the place!!
There were a lot of sculptures around which young William may find interesting, and I have tried to give a bit of information about some of them in the video.
We also watched the wallabies hopping around - who would have thought that you could see wallabies in an English garden, well, not me anyway!! The video is just shy of 12 minutes long. https://youtu.be/pdUinn015RQ
I include a picture of the guide to the "sculpture Park", for more information.

At last we have managed to visit Hole Park, as recommended to me by Gordon. I have to say that we were both very impressed with it and spent quite a few hours wandering round, taking pictures and video. Thank you so much Gordon, we would never have heard about it, not being on our radar, so to speak. https://youtu.be/dApuxDa6a7w The bluebells and wild garlic were spectacular. Hope you enjoy my efforts.

Actually Vicki the answer is a yes yes!!

Assuming that you still have a working copy of X6 on your old computer, all you need to do is to export the codes onto a USB stic and import them onto your new computer.

How to export your codecs from a working copy of MVPX6 and import them into your new computer:-

    Run MVPX6 and click on "Tools" and then select "Options"
    From the left hand pane select "Advanced", then click on "Manage Unlock Codes"
    From the bottom left of the next window click on "Export", choose a destination for your codes and give them a file name.
    You will then get a window with the message "Unlock codes exported", click OK. Copy/paste to a USB stick. Put the USB stick into your new computer.
    Run MVPX6 on your new computer and repeat step 2.
    This time click on "Import" and navigate to your exported unlock codes on your USB stick.

Job done!!

Thanks for the explanation Alfred , I must have been away when they did  ‘factorial’ functions at school, have to be careful how I use exclamation marks now so as not to be misunderstood...

While we are on about jokes that need explaining. Can you explain to me the one about the strawberries in a bottle, it says 22! on the bottle, but the punchline says how did they find well over a million?

Castle Combe does ring a bell Gordon, and looking at a few pictures of it on the internet it does look a little familiar. Again it's in Wiltshire and not a million mile from Lacock. Next time we visit Richard I will mention it to him and maybe he can take us there.

This site looks like a good read, and has some very nice pictures of the place. https://www.baldhiker.com/2020/05/26/ca … e-village/

I have just opened it William, you were referring to the "are you a Robot" round, and the symbol looks like an elongate "f". I can remember it being used in our maths lessons at school. The teacher wrote the symbol on the board and reffered to it as "the function of f" dy by dx was a phrase that stuck with me. I have no idea what it means.

As a mathematician yourself, perhaps you could explain it to me...
