NEW SCANNER U/S AT PRESENT WAITING FOR CHINA !

Really annoying that my cine scanning  has come to a full stop at present but the supplier in China may well be the maker and waiting the engineers suggestions. There is a rest to factory settings option on menu but when pressed nothing happens and you can't even switch off the machine. I've just finished the 4th attempts at doing the bathroom grouting, I've now put refresher on the white tile grout and then with masking tape and not using the shower for 36 hours have carefully regrouted the errant sections. All looks well with minimum clean up required, we still aren't sure long term what we should do but it can now wait at least until after Christmas. It was the childrens gift service at St Oswalds, I'm taking the presents down to the Salvation Army tomorrow, the numbers are well down so I doubt if I'll need the trolley to carry them just the big sack. Northwich SA support about 40 families and around 20 or so for meals but not 7 days, I think the food banks have partially filled the gap.

We've got 42 DVD orders to send out but leaving them to the morning, it all got a bit fraught today with the scanner and grouting. We'll certainly have a bag full . Well dinner is well under way we are both sipping aperitifs at the moment and thankfully been able to put bathrooms and cine film scanning aside courtesy alcohol! I'll get the covers out for the DVDs to be sent out in the morning, I thi9nk it is going to be a wet and windy night. Not looking that promising for filming this week so I may try for a Bus Spot Ultra, somehow I've Llandudno on my mind, a bit off the wall compared with some huge bus locations but there were trams bus and cable cars, well the latter still exist. I do hope I can resume cine scanning soon meanwhile with North Wales on my mind lets head in that direction for this evenings slide show.
