Did you miss me?

I've been very busy and had a week off since I last added anything here so it is time for a bit of a catch up. The last post had me off to film a sunset... it clouded over but I did get some more daffs and sheep to finish the spring section of 'The Year in Snowdonia'. This programme is coming along and I only have a few section left to shoot, unfortunately this includes some autumn leaves etc so it won't be finished until later in the year.

Sadly Alan Pegler passed away earlier in the year but some close friends and family took a ride on the WHR to mark the occasion and I chased the train as far as Pont Cae'r Gors, these are the results.

Another important part of my video making is the ability to make promotional packages, recently I've re edited and uploaded both the WHR Beer festival and Spooner's Boat which is the NRM, the boat and the DVD.

In the middle of March I chased 'The Snowdonian' up and down both railways in one day, some of the highlights of this trip can be seen here.


That was quite a day, I was knackered afterwards and had clocked up quite a few miles in the car too.

At the very end of the month I followed Palmerston to Carrog to the Llangollen Steam Railway. It shared a dual gauge track with Dolgoch from the Talyllyn, both were in steam on the Saturday I was there along with loads of standard gauge stuff too.


Coming up soon is Blaenau 30 and then the official unveiling of Hugh Napier, the installation of the new TYB bridge and the Beer festival... phew loads to do. I'm also keeping an eye open for those gnomes.
