I appeared briefly and led with my chin on last night's late and live; I found the experience much warmer in both temperature and in terms of the meeting and greeting and general down to earthness than I experienced with my last televisual on Nolan live. That experience is embedded in my brain like the bit in Starwars when Princess Leia is having her chain yanked by Jabba the Hut.
The heat in the studio was horrendous and I got to wondering just how well the wacky baccy would grow is such balmy climes - puts a whole new connotation on chilling out in the green room. I also wondered if my less than thick thatch would expose a shiny expanse of blood pudding coloured scalp under those unforgiving lights. I also had my comment on the current economic downturn and the responsibility of our Government to resource organisations like mine to support the newly unemployed published yesterday in the Belfast Telegraph I was pleased with it because it was balanced and complimented the comments by John Simpson and The MD of the Construction Federation - Not quite a media luvvie but anything that keeps the issue up there is a plus.
I need 12 portable PC's, 2 external drives to store files, a hub and ideally internet access wherever they go. Software wise MS Office, foam-filled on wheels suitcase sized flight case, 50 headphone sets will 1,000 disposable ear covers, and 50 memory sticks oh and 12 wired mouse. Oh yes and ideally a portable electronic whiteboard and a few gangs of four and some disk imaging software. This is my wish list for Mobile-IT (say it like mobility) I want my colleagues to be able to offer the same service to unemployed people out in the community via community organisations but not all in fact not many at all have enough working kit to allow us to deliver our programmes off site. I have set myself a challenge to try and get this equipment or the £10K to buy it - I have looked at leasing but we don't have the money to do this. This seems like a tall order but I believe it is doable. Any ideas would be very gratefully received :o)
