Great effort Mike, lovely family birthday getogether. Now that you are learning the art of producing and editing of videos, you will be asked to take videos of many family activities. We lived in the South Pacific for over 16 years, and took heaps and heaps of family videos, which my husband has now put on to discs and we have given a copy of all o more…

Thanks! Some bloggers have a 'Twitter' widget on their blog....is that some sot of variation? More importantly, how exposed does one become with one's personal info if/when one has such a widget featuring on one's blog? Sorry! I'm very keen to learn as much as I can....;) more…

Mike - comment from Terry. When VAT was introduced, newspapers, periodicals, and magazines, were either exempt or zero rated from Vat, on the basis that they were EDUCATIONAL matter!. Perhaps a call to HMRC would be in order to clarify this. Best of luck. more…
