New Website Launched!
We've just finished a new website for local artist Cerys Morgan, and launched it online at the end of last week!
Cerys is Aberdare born and bred, and creates fine pencil drawings and watercolour paintings from photographs. She's available for commissions for portraits and is also selling a limited number of prints of the local area.
When creating Cerys's website, we kept the design quite simple so that her amazing drawings would stand out, and a pop up function enables the visitor to see the fine details in the pictures on a larger scale.
If you're looking for a unique and personal present for a special someone, why not think about commissioning a picture. Visit Cerys' site now to see her work.

British Council
Another satisfied customer. Last night Tantrwm provided the AV for the launch of the British Councils new offices in Wales. Number One Kingsway saw The First Minister, Rhodri Morgan, unveil a plaque that celebrated the move, which also coincides with the 75th anniversary of the BC.
Tantrwm provided sound, lectern, plasma screens and technical support for MPEG conversion of power point slides.
A very successful evening at a very nice new building for the BC.
Thanks to all who helped.

Apple Anonymous - The 12 Step Plan
It is official. I am an APPLE addict.
I tried giving up my laptop. Leaving it at work. Not using it when i got home, but the addiction overcame me. First i started checking mails on the MAC MINI at home, then i resurected an old G4 and now i have brought the laptop home.
I am joining the AA (Apple Anonymous) and taking their twelve step plan:
For all of you like me, i am joining their programme.
Step 1: Honesty
After many years of denial, recovery can begin when with one simple admission of being powerless over Apple -- for Appleholics and their friends and family.
Step 2: Faith
It seems to be a spiritual truth, that before a higher power (Steve Jobs) can begin to operate, you must first believe that it can.
Step 3: Surrender
A lifetime of self-will run riot (PCs) can come to a screeching halt (Blue Screen of death), and change forever, by making a simple decision to turn it all over to a higher power (Apple).
Step 4: Soul Searching
There is a saying in the 12-step programs that (disk) recovery is a process, not an event. The same can be said for this step -- more will surely be revealed.
Step 5: (File System) Integrity
Probably the most difficult of all the steps to face, Step 5 is also the one that provides the greatest opportunity for growth.
Step 6: Acceptance
The key to Step 6 is acceptance -- accepting character defects exactly as they are and becoming entirely willing to let them go (The ONE BUTTON MOUSE).
Step 7: Humility
The spiritual focus of Step 7 is humility, asking a higher power (Steve J) to do something that cannot be done by self-will or mere determination (PLAY WMV FILES FOR JOBS SAKE!).
Step 8: Willingness
Making a list of those harmed (Microsoft, AVID) before coming into recovery may sound simple. Becoming willing to actually make those amends is the difficult part.
Step 9: Forgiveness
Making amends may seem like a bitter pill to swallow, but for those serious about recovery it can be great medicine for the spirit and soul. (BOOTCAMP)
Step 10: Maintenance (Repairing Permissions)
Nobody likes to admit to being wrong. But it is absolutely necessary to maintain spiritual progress in recovery.
Step 11: Making Contact ( MobileME)
The purpose of Step 11 is to discover the plan JOBS as you understand Him has for your life.
Step 12: Service (APPLECARE)
For those in recovery programs, practicing Step 12 is simply "how it works."

Top 10 Musical FIlms
So we have been asked to make a musical. Yes, the song and dance type. Hopefully it will come off and we can get some dancing in! That would be a dream come true. I can watch musicals over and over again.
One of the first i remeber watching was Grease, and around the same time i remember watching Oliver. They are both fantastic still to this day. If we could make something that had any level of comparison to these then i would be a happy man.
Anyhow, while researching i have compiled a list of what are my personal top 10 musical movies. Starting in reverse order of course.
10: HAIR
9: EVITA
8: THE BLUES BROTHERS
7: GREASE
6: JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR
5: THIS IS SPINAL TAP
4: TOMMY
3: MOULIN ROUGE
2: ROCKY HORROR SHOW
1: LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS
I hope that some people disagree and offer some other suggestions.
Ciao
