Indeed it was, luckily it was before the idea of videoing something on your phone is very first thing that comes to peoples mind. Although in some ways I'd quite like to see what the chain of events was...

I know what you mean. I've been waiting for this warm front so I can get outside and clean the bike. Thats now done so the next job is to move it into the garage and strip it down for a thorough clean and service.

Default Re: Smile of the day - What is yours?

i decided yesterday to register a business. It is not yet trading/has a turnover but it's going to be my project for this year and beyond to try and turn it into something.
For years i've done trips away and taken many photos of them too. Most of my trips are to unseen/visited places, and the roads and landscapes the same. The photos sit on a HDD at home, and i occasionally look through them. My plan/idea (nothing has been actioned yet) is to try and incorporate reviews of my trips with photos & videos in to something touristy/review like. My aim is to try and work with local tourist boards, councils, attractions etc and see where it goes. I still have a full time job so this will be a developing sideline in the background, and something to keep me busy.

That sounds like a plan. I'll be interested to see how you get on.

My shoulder has finally stopped hurting just for the sake of it.
It reminds me if I do something stupid, but others wise it's feeling better.

i'll be sure to keep it updated along the way.

I'm currently writing/developing a Blog web page to start documenting it all. I figure its best to get it all ready for when i can start to do trips again.

It's a busy market so find a USP of some sort if you can. Sis-in-law was a journalist and editor before taking maternity only to find her entire base had vanished when she got back, as everything had gone online at once. She does a travel with kids blog now and works hard at it from all sorts of media channels. She gets lots of commissions, has won various awards and her family has been to more places and restaurants than I can count. It's takes a lot of effort to stay at the top of her game but they enjoy it.

Good luck with finding your niche and market.
