but the link location seems to be right... I dunno, is it possible to set an album to private? I'll have a check and see in the settings.
Edit: Account options in the top right, then scroll down, does it say under album Settings
My album is ... Private or Public?
I believe it would... because you can enter a guest password... if thats intentional, perhaps could I get the guest password? I was camped only metres away from you... (Or one of your friends whose tends you stayed at a lot, this is under the tree. :D)

Posted:^^^ hehe - Ed, the video of CG has gone the same way the vast majority of video goes of CG...lots of great intensions on the part of budding film makers in the shooting, but not enough time to get the post production done - so while there were a bunch of cameras, I dont believe there is any vid available.

Posted:If ya want to go to Common Ground, get in early and get a ticket when they go on sale cos there's always people going WAHHHH What about me I wanna go and it's sold out 
and other people going Yah its sold out tough luck so GET IN EARLY!!!
Same like the Tassy Circus festival. Sells out fast with many (slacker/cruisin) twirler juggler types missing out and (imho) WAAAAY to many 'nice local families' with 8946 little kids each getting in early and snapping up the tix cos they are organised. Except maybe around contraception.

Posted:Indeed. Dodgem cars. The sort that bang into you then beep off oblivious making horrible noises at all hours. And kick you for fun while you're watching shows and heckle foully and squabble like gulls and don't actually give a dang about circus but someone took them there cos there's nothing else to do for miles or something. I am never particularly toddler friendly (one of the ghastly things BIT me the other day. I didn't even see it coming. Never met it in my life and it snuck up behind me and BIT me fiercely on the arm. I responded appropriately of course by shouting at it royally until its mum took it away and said 'you just met Gabe' in what I thought was a very fair way). But sheesh TCF was the most kid infested place I've been since my own were in kindy, and it did not improve my attitude to them a bit!
This is of course completely
cos Common Ground is perfectly civilised and not like that at all.
