Nonny, you've got me worried but unfortunately I don't know what I've got to watch out for! Can't get through to the web address you gave. My computer or your address faulty?

But anyway, thanks for the warning - I'm on my toes and ready for anything... :marooned

Oh, just tried again and I can get onto the page. Anybody else tried?

Nonny, don't you have to be a member of minuscule to access this?

No - I'm not. Why can I get it and not you.

Please, somebody else try.

might be something to do with my special anti-Green-Goblin firewall and security software?

hahahahah Spidey doesn't know what it's about! It's about a spider and its brilliant!

Well, I've got all that stuff too, but perhaps you've got something different. We're not going to know until somebody else joins in this conversation

PS Oh, thank God, PP has looked and seen it

Have you managed to see it yet Spidey?

spiderman · Post by **spiderman** » Thu Sep 27, 2007 7:10 am

nope

Just get an "error in page" message.

I think you're all just havin' a laugh at poor old Spidey!

What the hell, though, I'm a superman and can take it!

Hey Nonny, just describe what I'm missing briefly please! Ho hum!

OK Spidey, the video seems to be based on one of the scenes in Star Wars where the badies are flying after the goodies, with all the aerial acrobatic stuff.

Starts with a ladybird landing on a flower, then a spider descends in front of him and builds a web to trap him. The LB revs up and smashes his way through the web leaving a hole which the spider repairs.

LB comes across bluebottles round some rubbish, teases them and gets them to chase him - through the web, and the spider then repairs all those holes. The BBs chase the LB until he makes a smart turn round a road sign which the BBs fail to negotiate, they smash into it and perish.

LB comes across more BBs around some more rubbish - squadrons of them. He teases them and they chase him - through the web again (just the outlines of which now remain with the poor spider clinging on for dear life), and the last we see of the LB and the BBs is them heading off down the road. Towards another road sign.

The graphics on this are brilliant, the noises of the LB and BBs flying are done like the old propeller aeroplanes, and, like I said, it's just like Star Wars action in the insect world.

I hope you can manage to see it, even if it's on somebody else's computer.
It's a French film by the look of things done as some kind of project.

Thanks for all that, Nonny. It sounds great! I've already tried on 2 computers, each with different security software but to no avail! Trouble is that, with computers, we are never totally in control! I'll keep trying though, like Bruce and the

Away out, Nonny, and enjoy the sunshine today - it's too nice for a mouse to be sitting inside staring at computer screens! :sunbathing

Nah, I'm a sad little self-employed mouse, not much time for sitting out in the frost this morning. I work from home, though, so at least I can check on my computer every now and then - and watch the live eagle's nest streaming video cam from Maine in Mass where, we hope, things are revving up for next spring's breeding season.

Everything's a doddle compared to what is happening in Burma, though, hey?

spiderman · Post by **spiderman** » Thu Sep 27, 2007 9:20 am

Nope, doesn't look good in Burma (or Myanmar as we're supposed to call it nowadays) - they need support fast but unfortunately won't get it.

I'll let you get on with the mousework. Be careful if you come round my place though....I bought a box of mouse poison yesterday....nuthin' personal.........

...it's that time of year...little patters of feet in the loft...can you tell your relatives please to lay off Spidey.......thanks

So now I know why Spiderman shows he is in Seil and NY.

Just heard on the radio (BBC 5Live) this morning that 'Spiderman, the musical' opens on New York's Broadway next spring.

Come on then Spidey! The secret's out: tell us more!

spiderman · Post by **spiderman** » Thu Sep 27, 2007 12:08 pm

Aye, PP, it's a hard life flying back and forth between Seil & NY, fighting evil, rehearsing a musical and doing this blog!

As a matter of fact, I'm just back from a weekend rehearsal of the musical in NY (otherwise I'd have been here winning the skimming - using ricochets off the ends of the quarry pool, I've done 3 lengths per superpower skim, no problem). You can see a bit of how the rehearsal's going at

Co-stars the heid Scottish water man as the Green Goblin and Nonny as Mary Jane.........

If we make it big in NY, we'll be open to offers to bring the show over to the new hall on Seil. Might fit in well to its new programme of exciting functions....

Hey, wee Jessie Viking with the skirt and lassie's hair (don't forget how we stuffed you at the Battle of Largs), not a fan but a STAR!
