This is my creative outlet for my slide shows, videos and vlogs.
About Me:
 
I am a rock and roll fiend who has been taking photos for years. I used to run a venue in Greenwich in the 1970's called "Harry's Bar" at the Bricklayers Arms. These days I live in Wild West Wales where I am a ducker and diver. I am active in the local peace and justice movement (spurred on by Tony Blair's illegal war in Iraq), I do a bit of music promotion through Wild West Wales Creative Agency, run Wild West Wales Records, take photographs for fun and money and work part time for the ONS. My Partner Jenny, daughter Connie and dog Kelly do their very best to keep me on the level, and most of the time they succeed. I also got a new Sony Camcorder for my 60th birthday and am now fired up on moviemaking. It's a busy old life!!

YouTube petition for Wales:

"We, the undersigned YouTubers from Wales, request that YouTube include Wales in your Countries list, so that we may identify ourselves as Welsh and not merely as British. We further request that upon our declaring Wales as our country, you place the Red Dragon flag of Wales next to our names on our 'Channels' pages, instead of the Union Jack ("British") flag."

Sign it, send it in, pass it on!

Harrys Bar, I was one of about 6 punks plus the girls who lived in and around greenwich and blackheath, if we were not up the marquee in wardour street, or the albany or the kingshead with its live acts [ we sometimes crashed there for the night] or the oxford arms we would be in Harrys bar, one thing I do remeber is Harry would let us bring in a single by the pistols, or the buzzcocks and sling it on the jukebox. The stones, cathy & mary, good fun, a little bit of chaos and anarchy, and some lovely holidays in the sun.

Hi Sid B

Well you are 90% right, except that all the bands played in that little side bar and it was magnificently sweaty and packed. Other gems on the Jukebox included Mae West, Lou Reed, The Normal, ZZ Top, Jackson Brown and, of course the first Squeeze EP Packet of Three including 'Cat On The Wall". Those were halcyon days and it's true a few of the kids were a bit young but then so were most Punks. It was a funny time, the end of hippydom and the start of Punk, many people got confused and we tried to add to the confusion, just for the sheer fun of it. Hey Ho.....those were the days!!!
