It’s the Blog/Vlog Team……
You guessed it, Karen (aka Ms Moneypenny) writes the blogs and takes the pictures and I do the videos and fly ‘Dave’ our drone. It seemes to work, I do stupid and I’m getting the hang of drone flying and Ms Moneypenny has a way with words and has a keen eye for a shot. Trust me if we turned it around, I would dread to think what it would turn out like. Anyway, hope you like what we do enjoy following our adventures as we travel around documenting what we see and how we feel.
