Another sort of archery

Helped light the Wicker Man at Tralissick Gardens, Cornwall, with fire arrows on Saturday night. First time shot fire arrows and it is difficult to aim with the flare from the burning tip in front of one's eyes.

That is incredible, Edwin. The flames in the reflection make it so much better too. I'd go as far as to say that's better than the Wickerman I helped build at Butser.

Cool. I bet that was great fun.

Fire arrows are always fun. Last time I got to use one it was for a film shoot, we had to nock, Draw, and then Hold it while aimed, but *NOT* loose the arrow. Mainly as we had the camera crew in front of us... Having not shot the camera crew, we then still had these big flaming arrows that by then really should have been 50 yards away...

Uncredited extra on a sky tv sitcom. Was in shot for approximately 3 seconds. Nothing exciting. Film work is *really* boring. We spent 8 hours doing the same 10 second shot...

Alas not. I don't think I've ever really posed on a windswept rock...

Posing on a windswept rock would probably look naff..... unless you wear a cape/cloak, then it would look cool

Who needs a cloak, my hair is 30" long (and growing... last night I got my arm tangled in it...)
