Wednesday 1st June

OK. I've just about had it with this website. It's just erased a whole entry and won't organise things in date order so you'll notice the days are all over the place.

ARGH

Anyway. Today found the Earls Court Exhibition Centre hosting the 3 day Broadcast Production Show. I registered a month ago and was certainly adamant not to miss it so I formulated a way to fit in two hours of it before work. It was great and simply drummed home for me even more how much I want to keep working in video. Filled my "show" bag with so much stuff to read I could barely carry it after. Scored a free subscription to one of the film mags I've been keen to read by being their first customer. Hooray. Snuck into a seminar on Runners in Production which I really should have paid £15 for (bugger that) which basically sucked and I felt like sobbing in the back corner because I had more experience than most people in the room and still can't get a job in media. In London of all places. (Note on this - the show wasn't really open to the public and I had to lie about my line of work and who I worked for to be able to register in the first place.)

Anyway it would have been great to stick around and muck about on the new editing systems but alas hospital life beckoned. Another day of virtually SFA. Nine hours later I got home, watched the final of the latest season of Despo Housewhores which, oh my god! (won't say anything because I believe we're ahead of Oz.) Resigned for the 4th time never to watch Big Brother again. But there was nothing else on!
