They look so good but he makes it look so easy I missed this David - I haven't looked at his paintings , thanks for that I will look out for his work next time I visit the Art Gallery. Some of the best painting's were done in less than half an hour. Check out the art magazines at the newsagent - full of them. Mainly using scalples and huge brushes. Lots of mess - lots of fun, put plenty of plastic on the floor! love the cartoons - imaginations running wild. My favourites are all 90's plus Aladdin, Lion King, Beauty and the beast, Pocohonta's, Prince of Egypt with all the latest mix of graphics and music but when I was young I loved all the girly ones like Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, Jungle Book, Robin Hood all the Disney stuff.

Here's one last song for the road. Loved all those songs SV Bid BD Mandy and David I love the song 'Transformation' and all the links with it 'Brave Bear' definitely buying the DVD awesome. Oh well, here's one of my very favourite songs - I still remember the first time I heard it. I was driving home from Queensland to Sydney with one of those giant sunsets beaming down on me, and this awesome song just lifted my spirits. Amazing isn't how a song can lift you up or bring you down. But it's all good. Food for the soul...! <'> From an Aussie by a very awesome Aussie 'that's me' no just kidding - its my favourite Aussie Diva 'Delta' Hope you keep this thread alive - I might just visit from time to time to throw a coin in the jukebox. this one I give 5/10 Keep smiling....

Yep - I was listening to it in the car today too, and i have to admit that 'filler' comment I made was completely wrong! A case of wrong mood or wrong environment, but definitely sounds good on the road... Similar thing with ADSR by this lot: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HZPXgQSPm8A Listened indoors and so/so... in the car it's a very different kettle of fish!
