Clip 1 I tried to imagine what it would be like to take a trip on a train along the route of the the old railway Riding the Rails Reality was: Me on a bike riding along the lines with one hand (first time on a bike for over tens years) not watching where I was going (dog walkers beware) Trying to keep a camera steady (see the results for yourself) And frankly doing a bad job of each of the above.
Clip 2 Storm
Clip 3 Little Big Meeting
Clip 4 The lead singer of Prefab Sprout, Patrick 'Paddy' McAloon who's home town of Langley Park lies about 2 miles away from Bearpark seems to have been inspired by Bearpark enough for him to write this song about it. Bearpark - Prefab Sprout Many thanks to www.prefabsprout.net for pointing me in the direction of this song.
Sugestions Do you have any sugestions for video's like this. I have a few ideas myself but would love to hear yours. Furture possibilities: "Sledging down Taylor Avenue" (I'll get one of the kids to do this one. If we get some snow)
