Updates, Updates and more Updates
We have all been really busy, only managing to get on with the day to day as opposed to anything else so there is not much to say that we are doing that any other family is doing. We are about two to three weeks behind in any administration regarding most Charlie Bit My Finger related things.
For those of you who remember my comment on the clip and channel from about 1,000 views to 1,000,000 see this as another down payment on my promise.

Vevo and music videos dominating the Viral Charts
Another bad day for any video that is not music and Vevo. I counted 17 of the top 20 as music videos. While I don't have a problem with music videos and I enjoy a great many. It is such a shame that they dominate everything. Videos that languished with a few views with a Vevo branding suddenly jump up the YouTube charts. I feel sorry for everyone who will eventually simply be shown premium content and the home video will pale into insignificance. I am proud of Harry and Charlie's clip doing it's bit to break the trend. Although I doubt they will be in the top 20 on YouTube by the end of the year.

Our Welsh Holiday - Locations and notes
As an accompaniment to the Holiday in Wales video here are the names of the places.
Beach - Aberdovey April 10th. First full day of our holiday and a very hot one. We all were buried at least once. Harry and Charlie were buried twice. Feet felt numb after being in the water for a few minutes however.
Walk in the Hills - Llanidloes, April 11th. Following a fairly short but steep route. We filmed the Running in Leaves video shortly after the clip of Harry and Charlie walking down the hill together.
See-Saw - Llanidloes. After finishing the walk
Feeding the lambs - April 12th. We stayed in some lovely log cabins 'Dwr Y Felin' surrounded by farmland, Hugh and Sarah took us to see the newborn lambs one morning which was great. We was really happy Harry and Charlie got to feed the orphan lambs. We were also able to stroke the calves, cows and horses . Something the boys will remember for a long time. On the walk to the farm we saw a lamb with his/her mother who had only just been born.
Climbing and Jumping - Aberystwyth, April 12th. Spent the day climbing walking around, climbing the hill to the top of the electric railway and walking to the castle which is where the video was taken.
Steam Train - Vale of Rheidol Railway to The Devil's Bridge, April 13th. A great ride following the side of a hill gaining 600ft. Very tight corners on a narrow gauge railway. The trip took about an hour. The boys would have loved it more if they had not been quite so preoccupied with eating. http://www.rheidolrailway.co.uk/
Caves - King Arthur's Labyrinth, April 15th. Perhaps the most worrying of paces to visit as Charlie did not make it down the cave at the Black Country Museum. However we made it in and loved it, so all was well. I noticed the website does not mention some of the best parts of the trip into the Labyrinth so I will not either but it does start with a boat ride. We were not allowed to film in the caves and it was too dark anyway, this was us emerging into the light at the end. It was an hour the boys really enjoyed. The gift shop seem to have loads of Knight merchandise that we ended up having to take home with us :( I took the picture below just before the boat ride out as we were last. I am sure no one minded me using a flash as they were round the corner. http://www.kingarthurslabyrinth.co.uk/
Hot Tub - Outside the Log Cabin we were staying in for the week
I do these things more for our own memories and records but thanks for taking an interest.
