Wow. Those are really great. I lack both the talent, and patience it takes to put something like that together.

I will tell you that people seem to like Caught Up and Forbidden Love the best, you'll have to let me know what you think when you get that far down the list. Sorry it takes so long to download, I'm assuming you have dial up. I try and make the video size small, but if I make it any smaller you end up losing quality and we don't want a blurry Simone/Helen

You guys crack me up. I
'm stuck give me some song ideas, I'm so unsure about the two I have running through my head. I think I'm suffering from the video version of writers block.

Well apart from your "unforgiven Love" the other song I'm stuck on is Backstreet Boys - Incomplete

probably my emotional state at moment but it sure brings a tear to my eye when I listen to it Crying or Very sad

Unlike your forbidden love which I'm now having to stop listening to in the car as I'm having flashbacks to your vid and they are starting to affect my driving

Lol

Thanks for the songs, I listened to Speechless and I think I'm going to have to listen to it a few more times, not doing to much for me right away. I'm going to download the lyrics.

All for Believing I love, someone used it for a Olivia/Alex video and that's where I first heard it.

Thanks again for doing this, that was really very nice.

Great videos OWH! So do you do video editing for a profession... or is it just a hobby? Like the other strong female leads you have in some of them too (Law & Order). It's great that Simone will be playing a strong female in Wire In The Blood. More footage for you to put in videos.

I'm a bookkeeper far from anything remotely connected to editing or being at all creative. As I've said on some other threads, I didn't know a thing about any of the software I'm now using before Helen came into my life and I guess I got "a little, Caught Up" Wink

It's very nice to have the positive feedback I've gotten regarding this, because honestly I didn't know how to build a website or anything, I even built my current computer and believe me that was no easy task, but I needed more power and more hard drive, I think I started with a 70 GB harddrive and now I have 800GB.

I love Detective Benson in Law and Order-SVU and I am very excited about Simone being in Wire in the Blood, I think her name is even Alex and if you know SVU, you know Alex. I like that they gave her kind of a "butch" name, even if it's short for Alexandria.

I'm in the US, so getting Wire in the Blood is not going to be easy, but I'm going to London (the first time I've ever needed a passport) next month and I'm meeting some women from the other board and hoping that I can talk one of them into burning it for me or taping it on VHS, but then I have to get it converted. And yes I will use any new Simone stuff in a video somewhere down the line. I thought one or two videos would work this out of my system, but I'm working on video 7 as we speak, so apparently I was wrong.

If anyone who reads this wants to meet up with us for the "Muppet Party" we're meeting somewhere in the Soho area Sunday March 19th. All obsessed fans are welcome to come. Let me know and I'll get details to you.

I just realised that with the money I spent on hiking boots and the money I'm about to spend on school camp and my camera... I could have bought a plane ticket. Only one way of course, but that's all it would take.

Hope you all have fun meeting up in the UK. Very Happy My real life Helen & I used to travel there often but can't for awhile due to some travel restrictions. I hope to be over then again sometime soon as I miss my bi-annual visits. Crying or Very sad

I have to say... hoping I can vote here... that I like Forbidden Love best as a video... and Caught Up as a Simone montage.

It's too bad the L & O Serena figure "came out" on her last episode without having a little peek in the figure's life in some episodes before that time.

Alas... if only Helen Stewart was real.... or if SL was a lez with the same personality. Sad for all of us that she is "nothing like Helen" in real life. Crying or Very sad

I'm sure you all have seen it, but a good uneditied US DVD of Tipping the Velvet is always a good one to watch. Interesting characters. Of course, real life early 1900s couple Vita & Violet are always good for a read about a passionate relationship.

have now watched all the H&N vids, they are great OWH. I do have broadband but you cant just click and they appear they take a few mins to download, or maybe I just do it wrong, anyway the main thing is I get to see them!

I'll have to think of some song suggestions. The only one I can think of right now is "I have nothing" by Whitney Houston. that song always makes me think of Helen & Nikki having nothing if they dont have eachother.

You may be on to something there, the only Whitney song I gave a listen to was the theme from Bodyguard "I Will Always Love You", going to give that other one a listen.
Thanks for the suggestion and sorry it takes so long to download, I know I had to start zipping them because if you play them directly from the site it takes too much bandwidth and it was causing me to go over my limit every month. So they suggested zipping them, I'm glad they're worth the wait.
Later....

I agree OWH...Lets have a Whitney Houston music vid, I think many of the suggested songs would apply to Helen and Nikki, think they may even bring a tear to my eye Crying or Very sad but in a happy way
