This is to make you feel good on a quiet Sunday morning, if it doesn't bring a tear to your eyes then you have a better resolve than I do....................Please enjoy


What is wonderful about this is that people will walk past an older person as though they don’t exist, and I am sure that many, as have I, have had that happen countless times.
I sometimes think that in the eyes of the young, we become invisible as we age, especially in these days of all-absorbing portable technology that so entrances the young!
This wonderful older gentleman made them stop and pay attention; and they did!
God bless him!
And please turn up your sound.

I am getting old, I thought I would listen to it again, as you suggested, on the headphones, turned the volume up, one minute later my wife suggested, it would sound better if I plugged them in.....!!

I am watching the X factor whilst reading the post,s, when I watched these two singing it makes you want to weep to see the crap that the x factor is serving up. Both of these would walk it

Yeah, at the risk of sounding like a killjoy,  the first guy (singing in the shopping mall), he wasn't very old?   Nor was that vocal performance 'live',  You could tell that the track had been dubbed over, as his lips didn't match the words much of the time.
However, that aside, I am certain that he will have sounded excellent, in order for so many people to have stopped and listened.
I just wish we could have heard the actual singing performance.

The 2nd Guy,  he was older yes, and he wasn't bad at all..... but you will hear as good or better in the Karaoke pubs of Llandudno.
You will also hear a lot worse!!

I remember Father Francis a Cistercian Monk regularly singing outside the old Woolworths shop and his singing was a delight to everyone's ears, that is apart from the crowd in the Carlton pub next door who complained about the noise he was making!
Now if anyone ever walked past the Carlton at night in those days and heard the racket masquerading as Karaoke coming from inside the pub they must have hoped that the Singing Licence for the Carlton be revoked to save passers by from further punishment.

There used to be a series on Sky about US recovery teams, and that sort of thing is more common than you might think.

It's nice, and very professional.  I'm guessing it took about 6 - 9 months, an artificial dolphin for the dog to ride on, at least three boats and about a month in editing. What you see in that minute probably represents almost a year's work,

Hi Hugo, great film, coincidentally I watched some dogs clips on U tube the other day, and thought you might like to see this film, gives you an idea how well they can be trained, you can give it a try with your own dogs...
The world's most intelligent dog

Also found your Dog and Dolphin film..."Lets be friends"...with a nice message in English.
