I have spent the past few days (and probably the next few weeks) transferring my old VHS tapes onto my hard drive so I can burn some of the things I have recorded over the years onto DVD. Its amazing some of the crap that I have come across, and surprisingly how good the quality [...]

I was sent this video today with a note ‘this will make you cry’ … not only did it make me cry but it broke my heart. Take a look at ’99 Balloons’ the story of Eliot who was born with an undeveloped lung, a heart with a hole in it and DNA that placed faulty [...]
