Perhaps i'll come to the festival!

it sounds wonderful

[RedheadWorld]

@CopperCab It'll be quite a time. Based on the RSVPs and work he's done, I think 100 minimum for sure.

The only thing that ruins it is the auto-captions :-( ....I thought of 'DJO' when I saw those :D (hey it does put some comical stuff) ....yea I may switch those off when I watch in future ;-)

[Russett90]

Fun to try to work out who everyone is though; nice to see a mix of rh-world members and others subscribing......(if any redhead-world user looks at my profile they will find me out so fast....) but I'm enjoying using my other online profiles.

See you all back at the site where it is all happening later ;D

[Russett90]

Well, I'm not a video person so even though I'm a fast learner it would take me ages to learn something like that. I like to watch (no formatting seems to work here, so I can't emphasise the 'watch') videos, but not make them....that or I just haven't got adequate software/hardware to do that....

Yea as I've said before I wondered what you could possibly be up to which was taking so long, but bravo. Was not expecting that. So I wonder what the next interview is; this blew me away :-) awesome.

[Russett90]

:O uh oh. My comment doesn't really stand alone now.....

but I think they said something like "I like the hair. But the globe is kind of scary." That's to let everyone know what I thought the same about! hehe.

Oh....and this is all kind of cool too, a youtube channel too - I remember when it was just only the site :-). This is like a Rolf Harris art program, but instead of "do you know 'what' it is yet?" it's like "do you know 'who' it is yet?" :P hehe

@Russett90 Oops, prior commentor - meant to press reply instead of remove. Hehe, thank for the comment :)

[RedheadWorld]

@Russett90 Thanks so much! The editing did take several hours over a few days, but at least I'm getting some experience to speed up the process. Hope to do taping of another interview this week. :)
