A Sentimental Journey....

.....well there you have it, a technically superb wee film from the talented Blipfoto crew; a great example of how to polish a turd. I've watched it to the edge of narcissism, agonising over the number of 'so' and 'me' mentions and did I really say "people who I work with?"; my old English teacher will be burling in her grave at that faux pas. These things happen with a camera trained on you, no script and a need to sound natural, naturally.

Crucially, I forgot one important point in my waxing; a tribute to my brother-in-law LLCoolJim. Jim introduced me to Joe's original blog and hence Blipfoto. Thanks again mate.

The on-film credits are brief, so here is an expansion:

1) Owen Richards
2) Alex The Lollipop Man
3) Nancy Little
4) Sparky the Cat
5) Magnus Carswell
6) Louis Pettinger
7) LLCoolJim again
8) Robert Burns, The Foo Fighters and a Leith Sofa
9) Mike Marshall at Embo
10) Ross 'Jazz Hands' Wood aka I am Rosco
11) Ruben at Pizza Express
12) Nathan USA Scout Leader
13) Colin Anderson
14) Dave Anderson
15) Leo McLaughlin's sleeve
16) The Scouts of the 11th Leith - all of whom have great parents I should add
17) The burghers and thers of Edinburgh and Leith
18) Orkney Best......

....my Mum and Dad and most of all, The Academy. Thank you and good night.
