Haven't created any new continuity clock generators for FCPX for a while (been quite busy with real television!), but got quite a number of new ones in the works...

Running a business on your own can be challenging at times.

Today feels like a good day to say that I'm proud of what I've built. And I'm proud to be part of a community of women who are out there doing the same.

Happy International Women's Day.

Being able to watch Music Box on satellite at home from 1984 meant being able to properly get into European music that you’d never hear let alone see in the UK - like this!

Heard this being played when I was out earlier - immediately reminded me of if watching it on Music Box, Europe’s first 24hr music channel. Can’t believe that was almost 40 years ago!!!

Have you got this yet? It's the hosts of an ALF podcast rapping over I Could Be So Good For You and it's to help keep the lights on at @noiseboxradio.com. and if there's a nicher pop song than that I'll be very surprised.

Please repost for awareness.

Remembering Nino Vaccarella, born #OnThisDay in ’33. He started 4 #F1 GPs, for De Tomaso (privateer), Porsche, Lotus & Ferrari, but he was at his best in sports cars, winning Le Mans for Ferrari in ’64 & the #TargaFlorio in ’65 (Ferrari), ’71 (Alfa; pic) & ’75 (Alfa again).

In August 1969 you had a choice of either watching Carry On Camping at the local Gaumont or schlepping all the way to Woodstock to spend the weekend in a muddy field full of hippies

So 100k+ people potentially seeking asylum from Dubai. These sound like people with very demanding lifestyles who may not be able to assimilate into our simple make do and mend culture. Plus they’re not used to paying tax.
