Trip to the land of the Scot
« on: July 27, 2011, 12:37:52 AM »
Took a lot of Vids and pics of our trip to Scotland...Christine, A.K.A. Doll,  and I absolutely loved every minute of it... Its not over yet. We are at the moment in a hotel in Oswestry and intend on a little detour around Angelsey tomorrow. I just thought I'd upload a vid of part of the journey from Falkirk to Oswestry that we took today. Got loads more taken and intend on taking more tomorrow. This vid is all on motorway so a bit on the boring side. Thought I'd just try it out. More not so boring, I hope, will follow.....

Hi Monkey boy..This is the link to the camera i used. You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login . It took some time to sort it out to get the best out if it. I only got it the day before the trip, so the 1st days vids are not good to say the least. I sorted the sound by putting the mic into the wind cover of the scala rider mic. Then positioned the camera better, They were OK then.
The bit of language at the end was because I was trying to secure the strap of the camera remote as it was flapping around in the wind. you can see it on the vid... I gave up and hence the slip of the tongue...lol Sorted it when we stopped...

Photo's of the trip... Taken by Christine (Doll). Most of them were taken off the back of the bike while traveling, so she didn't do a bad job at all.

One of the GOOD BOY vids from the trip. They take ages to upload to photo bucket. I was going to reduce them 1st but it spoils the views ..
