Week one of a Roadshow we are running has been very good, despite the snow, which only became a problem when we went up the closed snake pass road where I ended up in first as the Merc-Sprinter's ASR kicked in for the last 100 Meters of the clime, and the anti lock on the way down, bit scary but amazing views!

The Job entails a 4X3 meter screen with a custom Foamex base panel (thanks to Ross at RSCNC http://www.rscnc.co.uk/ for building it) a matching lectern, PowerPoint, DVD, 8 Radio Mics and a Powervote system, this enables the audience to vote on keypads, the software is a PowerPoint plug-in, and is quite straight forward, it is a great system, it gives you bar graph slides of the responses and can handle hundreds of votes in seconds, then creates a file so you can use the data later.

We visited Manchester City's stadium, Birmingham's Villa Park, and Durham, with Leicester and Cambridge next week, there are 16 all together and although its hard work we have really enjoyed it.

The big Panasonic 5700 is doing a sterling job, I love it, set up is now down to a couple of minutes, it took a while to get used to the short throw lens as it needs to be in exactly the right place, or its keystone city.

We have just finished installing a PA system in St Roberts Church in Harrogate, 4 Tannoy V8's in white sounding heavenly, the system is for the Folk Musicians who play there, and to give some power to the CD playback.

It sounds fantastic, with very little echo, considering the size and construction of the 100 year old listed building.

Lastly we have moved to our new storage facility, just off Skipton road, 2 minutes walk from my house, which fits well into my drive to be greener.
