Testing our new Insta360
This week we had the chance to test our new Insta360 camera (during a building recording project), designed for taking 360° video and photography. Remember all the effort it used to take to create a bubbleworld? It appears now all it takes is a 5 second shot on the camera and then a 'save as' command once the file is downloaded. Initially the camera produces a panorama which it then stitches together automatically into the bubbleworld

Testing our new Insta360
As a few if you are aware, we've had an Instagram account for some time now but have failed to really use it. Having now discovered the joys of Instagram through the PC desktop I'm pleased to announce that we've started to put our 'historical' working shots on Instagram for your enjoyment/bemusement/amusement.

A hot winter’s day?
Well, how odd. 26th February, Winter in the UK… and a monitoring job in Morpeth where sun cream was needed. This time last year we were hand digging test pits in Ebchester during the Beast from the East...

Our phones are working again!
We'd line of offer our sincere thanks to Diamond Group NE (www.diamond-group.net) for stepping in and fixing our long-standing landline system. As anyone who has tried contacting us on our landline since December knows, the system has been 'fragile' to say the least. Diamond have fixed the issues, and we've now got working phones and an answer machine that actually records messages! An extremely helpful company that we'd recommend to anyone who has, or is thinking of setting up a VOIP system.
