Waljan's Blog: July 2009

Hi there folks, well here we are with a picture fest after uncle Matthew sorted out some permissions, don't know exactly what he was on about I can only put paw to keyboard, I'm no good at all this technical malarky! I still can't show you any photo's of Crufts, Mum and Dad's anniversary or me at the film set of Robin Hood as it appears the bit of the computer where you plug things in has blown as well. Oh well, I'll just have to rely on me friend Gemi who has taken some awesum photos on the filmset of Robin Hood, hope she don't sue me for using them! Way to go Gemi! Shall I tell you more? Oh course I can see you're dying to ask what a star like me was doing on the Robin Hood set without taking a leading role! Anyway, it happened like this.......

Now Dad is an ardent Robin Hood fan, has all the old films, the different series on DVD and never missed an episode of the recent series. Now after the recent filming of the new Harry Potter film on our local Freshwater West beach, along came another company to film a new Robin Hood film starring Russell Crowe and Kate Blanchett. They advertised for extras so along went Dad, Jason and Jason's mate Lance who some of you might have met. Gemi and Lance got married recently and all our mob went so the rest of us hairy crew who stayed at home would like to wish them all the best for their future, here's a photo of the wedding day. Beautiful dress..

Soooo, there is Lance, Jason and Dad who is DESPERATE to be in the film, all got shortlisted and only Lance and Jason got picked.........oooh dear! Anyway they started filming in June it lasted about three weeks and they both finished on Friday. Here's Jason in part of his kit...
