Bought myself a new friend the other day, he's so cute... unfortunately not many people agree with me. He's a rat and I've called him Alonzo :P Mostly white but has a cream head. Awwwwww

You can train them to come when you call; tap the floor/desk/wherever it is (outside cage) when you feed it a little treat, and say its name. Eventually they learn to come running at either the sound or the tapping vibrations, and so can be allowed to wander around a round or house. It's really cool. =)
Wow, that is awesome! I have tried to get him to eat stuff i give him but he's still too scared, I have to put it in his little bowl so he can do a runner, grab the bit of food and run back in his hole to eat it. He's on my shoulder atm, tickling me with his tail and wiskers, so hopefully it wont be too long before he starts to trust me. Cant wait to try and teach him stuff! I think he's turning into a tv addict though, cause my tv is right next to the cage and quite often I see him just staring at it for great periods of time. Oh and he cant run fast enough for the wheel so he ends up spinning out of control, so gets sick of that, so just lies in theer watching tv - thats my little man :P
they're lovely aren't they. mines called rodney, he's dark grey with flick of white. i let him run over my desk and on the window. he knows when i tap on something that's where i want him to go. i have a big ball which he loves going in and running into everyone. Watch out for cables, they love chewing them. i nearly lost rodney a few weeks back when he chewed through a lamp and got electrocuted.
Awww thats such a cool name! After you said that, I started giving that ago and its actually working. He's coming over when I call him. Oh and I also got him one of those balls, but he doesnt seem to like it much, he just kinda sits in it and doesnt wanna go anywhere. Oh yeah I know, they're buggers for that. I did warn him that when he was behind my tv and computer set-up that if he chewed anything he was gonna die - and not from electrical shock either. He has now taken to chewing my t-shirts instead.
Hi, I was at Pegasus 3 at the weekend and they played a couple of your vids. The one that stood out for me was Famous Last Words by My Chemical Romance. You do fantastic work, so I looked you up and fell in love with your Somewhere A Clock Is Ticking vid too. I just wanted to congratulate you for some excellent videos. I was wondering, what program do you use? Any tips for a budding vid-maker? ;)
Hi Yeah I had heard a couple of people mention that, any ideas what other vids they played? Just curious. Thanks so much, glad you like them :D I use Adobe Premiere Pro. As for tips... use clips with no talking in it and try to match your clip changes with the beat of the music. Fades where you want to hold the notes, cuts where you want to show the fast pace of the music, etc. Hope that helps a little
Thanks for the tips! I think they played the Monty Python one too but I wasn't in the hall when they played most of the vids because I was at photo shoots. They went down well though :D How much was Adobe Premiere Pro?
well my mate actually put it on my computer for me and he may have got it through the wonderful internet. So i cant help you there. Its a good program though, I think they've updated it since then too.
