Well I really got caught out two nights ago about 14 people turned up here for a film show at our home cinema that I thought was for next week, so on that wintery night it had been snowing in the morning I apologized for my mistake, turned the heating on "it was like a fridge out there", and got things up and running well the B/H 16mm does not like the cold so tried to warm it up before hand, just got started and the lamp blew another apology [Roll Eyes]

a quick change of lamp and away we went again "thank goodness" at the end of the night everyone seemed to enjoy the programme.

Well yesterday my wife had a visit at work and it turned out to be some of the people who had attended that night, they said how much they enjoyed the film show that evening and how "it was a nice change from watching.... DVD [Smile]

..well........ [Roll Eyes]

The feature I put on that night was "The Bucket List" and it was on "DVD" and projected on my old Sanyo Z1 video projector "it looked good" so there you have it a neat change over "pull my old fishing weight change over cord" from film to DVD and they cant tell the difference [Wink]
