Hi John,

I'd love to watch this but it doesn't seem to want to work for some reason. Can you check it (its possibly the computers here at my friendly local cyber cafe or even my own technological ineptitude).

Just to let you know my website Riverrun Barnet is undergoing modification and will soon be on line as a subsidary of Middlesex County Council. Cheers.

I managed to get it that time and stunning it was! Yeats, Is that Ted Hughes? The film already looks historic, all those momentary configurations never to be repeated slipping through the fingers. Its hearbreaking. And the shots bordering on photographs - so well framed and sensitive. Which year was it John - 2003? 1984? 1966? And where did they go, these peole, the weeds by the railings before the canal (Mugwort? Wormwood?) There is no evidence for immortality in this film.

Love ya

Nick, so flattering mate. It is Ted Hughes indeed, The Crow, funny how it just seemed to fit the mood of the Cally and Kings Cross at that time. I believe it was Feb/March 2005. It's already very different down there now.
