Cossit House: Tied Up in Red Tape
Episode 28: I regret that the episode I had planned for today on Cossit House, the oldest standing house in Sydney, cannot be aired because Cossit House is under the authority of The Old Sydney Society which has strict rules regarding production of video and film on their property; they have asked it not be aired until it goes through proper channels.
Now they MAY decide to let me air it once I go through their formal procedures; I'll keep you posted as anything develops on that front. As for this week, unfortunately I was not told about this until the last moment, I was unable to complete an alternate episode in time for this week.
So, for lack of any alternative I'm going to air SOME of it but without audio and with titles superimposed explaining what happened. So, if you'd like to know more about what happened, please watch this week's episode.
If you'd like to encourage The Old Sydney Society to air my Cossit House segment, here's how you can reach them:

A Dying Community
Well guys ,I thought that I would take a little drive down and show the world the town next to my hometown which is also the small rural town of Sydney Mines.This is the place that i grew up in..As i walk down the main street i filmed all of the very few stores that are now left surviving on what was once a thriving community here back in the 80's before the coal mine was shut down in the mid 70's.After that i headed down Pitt street to show where the old Princess colliery coal mine was and is now a pretty big walking trail and right across the road are a few baseball fields and a skateboard park for the kids.I then proceed to end the film and call it a day and headed home.

In the mood for Ghost stories, just sit back turn out the lights and listen. Sorry for not having video, I produced this for radio only. It's Just a collection of photographs from the web, I don't have the pictures of The Cossit House.
This is a C99 fm Halloween special for 2010. It is a collection of ghost stories, I recording while on a ghost hunt with my sister Lynn Wells.
I added some creepy sounds in the background so it may sound a little over done.
During our private tour we caught some unexplained voices on our cameras and recorders. So listen and I'll let you be the judge. If not I hope you at least enjoy the ghost stories.
