A Brit Abroad - Saturday May 14, 2005
Today I have a special edition of A Brit Abroad for you. On Thursday night I recorded a Skype call with two friends in the UK, Ian Dixon from The Media Center Show, and Phil from Clanlife.
With no real plan we basically geeked out and got all Engagety. I hope you enjoy it! We plan on making this a regular occurence.
At 35 minutes and forty seconds and weighing in at 16.4MB, It's A Brit Abroad and Friends!

Downloading it now, on the 3g card on a laptop in a caravan overlooking the sea. Works great so far, although skype is a bit of a strain on it.
