daktari grace too big

in my struggle to get 15Gb down to as little as possible i revisited quite alot of music that i'd forgotten about making... one gem that turned up was the music i recorded for josiah when she was pregnant, to be played to her bump... of unspecified gender back then so we were using the ungender specific Dr a fair bit... which translated into the name of this tune, daktari (being swahili for doctor)..

i've used it as the music to a short film starring grace that i've made, my first venture into film-making using windows movie maker, sadly too big to put up on my webspace @ 60Mb, maybe i'll find a better compression for it, or maybe i'll find some bigger webspace... it needs refining anyway so it's probably best it's not viewable yet by all and sundry, but it is sooooo cute... all stuff i filmed when they were last here, just before her 19th birthmonthday...

i could gaze at her image all day so i'm not a very good judge of what works or not, there are long shots of her talking to strangers on the tube which i find fascinating... but then she is my goddaughter...
