I was told to sit in the loungeroom with my kids around me. Then I was given a present and told I had to open it tonight!
OK, what's the catch????
I was told that I had to open it tonight, or tomorrow morning I will be saying "I wish I had this earlier"!?!?
I sat there dumbfounded and carefully opened it up, waiting for the joke.
It is a miniature Video camera!!!!!!!!!
Man, it's small!
Cheryl knows how much I love to video the kids at Christmas but my old Video Camera died a few years ago and I have missed videoing a few christmases.
So now I can get them opening their prezzies tomorrow :thumbsup:
Here is a few pics of how small it is!!! Geez, technology has changed since I used the Brick I had!!! Hmmm, I wonder how it will go on Astro stuff :lol:

Light, Action, Roll 'em :lol:
Even if it doesn't capture Astro Stuff Steve, it will be nice to get my kids on Video again! I was making a video of their lives but the last few years are missing.

Thanks Daniel, Merry Christmas to you and your family.
I just dug out my old broken 'Brick' video camera to see them side by side! :lol:
I have to laugh. The new one is the same size as the battery pack on the back of the old one :rofl:
Wow, technology huh!

:lol: :lol: Wow you have to laugh, at this rate the way technology is going we will soon need to carry a microscope and sewing needle to be able to see and operate future cameras!!:lol:
What a great prezzie Ken, I'm sure you will enjoy that one for many years to come.
Cheers
