2006 A Retrospective

What a year2006 has been .
As a family a lot of the goals and personal objectives that we set out to achieve in the last year were somewhat realised.
2006, saw me get that promotion I had worked so hard for( no seriously ).
I did my first interview in 'Eco Austral' a french language Business magazine ( which is a BIG thing considering I'm not too hot in French).
Of course Jen's Graduation stands out as one of our great achievement.
Other highlights have been the number of friends and family who have gotten in touch this past year,through this weblog over the last year that has truly been a welcome surprise.
Anyhow I hope that you all had a great time over the new year , whether in Londinium, Dubai, Wolverhampton , Palmer's Green, Tottenham, Wales, Belarus, ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD!!!
I look forward to hearing about it.
In regards to he pictures Ive posted its basically everything we have gotten up to since my last set of pictures..
From the charity event planed with my Direct Sales Team for underprivileged orphans, to the Beeharry's X-mas party...
as usual click the PICLINK and off you go.

Techno Lust 2

Regular readers to this site will remember me lusting over an JVC Everio Hard Disk Video cam- about this time last year...
I still think its a beautiful little machine( it'd fit in the palm of your hand....).
Though it did come highly recommended ( apparently Tarantino always has one with him )but due to poor reviews in regards to its poor light performance etc i never brought one....
NOW THIS BABY!!!!
This babe is the way forward.... You cant really go wrong with Sony....I've has a Cannon camera which stopped working after a short while and Cannon didn't want anything to do with it , poor customer service- enough to put me off the brand.... whereas now i have a top of the line Digicam Sony Cybershot DSCT7 which I have taken underwater ,right up to the tops of hills and no problems whatsoever....
And anyway the videocam brings with it :

2.1 Mega pixel VIDEO recording - which is HIGH DEFINITION which should go nicely with the Plasma screen next year:)( haven't convinced the Mrs yet on that one yet....:)

10 x optical zoom

Dolby® Digital 5.1ch Recording- I will be the next Scorsese

And of course NO Tape whatsoever!!! This is the future of media products... [an article in yesterday's London Times stated how sales of DVDs has dropped significantly over the last year and media companies were anticipating further drops over the next year.
The market favouring downloads, and on demand media rather that removable...]
Aslo the camera was recently voted best camera in its catergory by camcorderinco.com which is a highly restpected camcoredr specialist site...
So all left to do is wait for that performance bonus in January ... and whoo hoo!!!!
