Steve Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 Hi all - We're making a presentation to send out to local authorities and others letting them know more about the FSF and how members use it. I wondered if there were any members living within striking distance of East Sussex who would be comfortable chatting about how they benefit from membership? It would result in a minute or so (at most) of your presence on a promotional DVD. It would probably take about an hour of your time and could take place either in your setting (with suitable permissions from your parents necessary) or in another room. An alternative possibility is that you travel to us (in Lewes), where we will be happy to supply you with travel expense re-imbursement, tea and very probably an FSF mug! (steady on, don't get too excited...) I've already been interviewed and it was actually a pretty painless experience (not to say that it will be painless for people viewing the end product), but I know that many people have a horror of doing this sort of thing, so don't volunteer unless you feel happy with the idea! Otherwise perhaps you can email (steve@foundation-stage.info) or PM me with your location? Immortality beckons! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_8466 Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 (edited) Thankfully I live to far away to support you in this way Steve However if you would like/need written testimonials I'm more than happy to offer my services. I'd need a strict wordcount though... Hope you get lots of offers - will the results be posted on here for all to see?

Steve Posted March 18, 2008 Author Share Posted March 18, 2008 We're hoping to do a web version of it as well Maz so you may well see it on here (although it may require an x certificate for its horror content - I've seen an early draft which consists simply of me and some text). It's an interesting point about any written recommendations though. Although it's a bit like fishing for compliments I guess these would fit in well with the DVD, so if anyone has nice things to say about the FSF I'd be grateful for some PMs with comments you wouldn't mind being used. By the way, we have an advertisement coming out in EYE next month, so if you subscribe to that magazine keep an eye (pun intended) out for it.

AnonyMouse_8466 Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 although it may require an x certificate for its horror content You're not a smoker are you Steve? Just heard on the radio that (I think) Liverpool council are considering putting an 18 restriction on films whose characters smoke! Who did your make up?

Guest Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 I would have loved to join in but I'm a bit too far and currently without 3 front teeth , so really would be a horror pic. I will think of some testimonial sentences and get back to you. Peggy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Posted March 20, 2008 Author Share Posted March 20, 2008 We did actually think of you Peggy and Kent isn't necessarily too far. But we thought it might not be viewed as entirely impartial given that you're a moderator... The teeth wouldn't have mattered either - they can do amazing things digitally these days. We'd have given you a big bushy moustache and beard! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 ooh, I've already got the moustache, thank goodness for Immac. I hope you get some volunteers soon, especially now they know you can digitally enhance images. ( not suggesting any FSF members would need this service, I hasten to add ) Peggy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_3139 Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 I think your first thought was probably best Peggy, your moustache, my beard. What a hansome picture Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_2732 Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 Scary!! What have I become embroiled with..... No, I'd be happy to help with testimonial. sorry I'm not physically closer - although, as you rightly pointed out, Moderators are hardly impartial!!!!!

Guest Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 I'd be happy to help but I'm nowhere near you being up in Manchester. I'll happily write something though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_6716 Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 Oh Peggy, honestly, you create a wonderful mental picture... you've made my day!! Ann x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we thought it might not be viewed as entirely impartial given that you're a moderator... But surely moderators are the perfect candidates. Remember that old advert - "Hi! I'm Victor Kiam - I loved the product so much I bought the company"? Shame is I can remember the man's name but not the company.... You'd need to be a pretty committed Forum member to become a moderator, after all. "Hi, I'm Peggy - I liked the Forum so much I became a moderator!" Maz PS: have you asked any high-profile LEA people? That would be quite an endorsement.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnonyMouse_8466 Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 I believe it was Remington Razors, Maz.... how sad I remember!! Good memory, Sue. Brings us nicely back to Peggy's false beard, doesn't it? Maz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_4544 Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 I am thankfully far to far away to get in front of a camera (not that I don't fully endorse the product) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
