I'll upload the packages for anyone to view. This will make the final special programme a belter!<br />Anyway a bit of family time and fixing all my trashed gear in preparation to switching to the new Sony EX-3.<br />Also another good friend,Sean Langan, was released last week after having been held by the Taliban for 3 months!<br />I hope he has a good rest and some family time.<br /><br />Check out the packages on YouTube, search Pathfinders Afghanistan and the 3 parts will come up!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3583363662299301305-6785754033917003435?l=timberwolfuk.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>JIM FOSTERhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07750975602570989463noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3583363662299301305.post-37303472280825846342008-05-05T18:11:00.004Z2010-01-15T09:06:44.035ZIt's been a busy few months, filming a Dispatches in Somalia with Aiden Hartley which goes out on Channel 4 on May 19th.Check the programme out on YouTube, "Thev Warlords Next Door".
