    Shopping for a drone to add to the existing kit. Doing lots of online research. Its gonna be second hand due to the budget. I always worked with drone operators on projects and that's all they did, while I looked after the "ground level" work. So I'm buying a drone, training up and keeping it in house for the new start up. I've used them before and its not that difficult. Editing is your friend.:D

    Off out to a local "secret" meeting soon about a possible freebie job to add to the portfolio. A little disheartened that I can't use a lot of my previous contractor work here in Ireland. Loads of it is popping up on TV lately, but I was merely part of the process.

    Unfortunately the last few weeks they've been used unscrupulously too :(

    How so, Purple?

    I must say, no TV drama seems complete now without the 'aerial drone shot of forested area'. Which were lovely at first but are getting a tired. Surely there are other things the director of cinematography could shoot with the drone ?

    I get excited about new things but almost always think immediately that some people will find a less than legal use. Every damn time..

    It is only illegal when you get caught.

    I have a few feeder mice for my Python,that I would gladly donate to boards to take over the running of the wheel.Until they get younger hamsters eager for the task of running the site.It took a bit of convincing but old Betty is up for it as well.

    Time for little anti drone petal guns on our houses! Pew pew!

    Grandeeod, I have been looking into getting one.. there’s just so much info online. Any quick guidance for a first time buyer?

    Couchside after a day of doing NOTHING! It’s been tremendous. Reading that “red chair” thread, a few absolute gems.

    Relaxing here after another lovely week of both of us working from home, few beers being consumed now with no clock watching for the morning, great zoom call with extended family earlier in the evening

    On the subject of drones, I was over at my best mate's place for a wee gathering of a few old friends and a delish BBQ - and he showed us his drone.

    It's a good bit smaller than I'd imagined. And very very expensive for what you get. He loves using it - it's his new toy! :D

    Couchside at home now, tired after a long day and doing nothing in particular.

    Mavic Mini is the way to go based on my research.

    Anyone using a Drone as a toy, is a dope, pure and simple. They are and should be artistic kit for artistic work. But I get you JK in that eejits do what eejits do..

    Unfortunately, drones are sold a lot as toys, i'm sure they will be a favourite come present giving season again. Along with puppies :mad:

    100% here Grand, a guy I know from the local has one also and he's acting the f^*king maggot with it.

    The genuine folk can't help that Grem. I need a drone. A-Holes that buy them for BS crap will always exist. I have worked with some great Drone operators that take it seriously and make a living from it. They even had IAA clearance for power and height. But yeah, dickhead operators do exist.
