Mary... O Mighty Scottish Princess are you going to reply to me aboit Missouri??

Go to the Games and Festivals topic/Representing Missouri (your topic) - I've posted there!

MY heartfelt thanks to all of you who worked so hard at our Thompson tent.
   I liked the pictures with the names that Michael posted. I think it helps if you are able to connect a name with a face - but then again maybe it's just my age.
Mary says I need all the help I can get. I really liked the tent layout - it looked nice.
   I am getting impatient waiting for Booner's report - also are there any more pictures?
 I hoped you thanked Maggie for the CD of her book I am eager to see it.

Hey Booner- thanks for loning some of your tartan tape to my daughter's dog!  Annabelle proudly wears her Thomson dress blue!

[Thomas Thompson]

That's a great idea.  Maybe it will trigger a new 'work at home' industry.

Most of the footage and photos I have is specific to my family.  I did not set out intending to make a Clan Thompson movie out of it. I'll get more everyone-type photos and footage next time.

Cheers

Thanks Parker, I enjoyed the video.     We should have more videos of more Games......hummmm some of us need a video camera for Christmas.

Parker and all who worked on the video -
   I must admit that I am a technology newbie. So I am slow to see the potential for "Utube", "Twittering", Maybe its cheeping?, facebody or facebooking or whatever - you get the picture.ANYWAY
   I think we are missing a great PR opportunity if we don't jump on the band wagon. We are a family group and, as such, we should put individual family get-togethers on the forum. We could add a new topic just for that purpose. If a games taping was well done maybe we could get the Games/Festival Committee to consider using our video as a form of event advertisement. The possibilities are endless and it would further our efforts to publicize that there is a Clan Thom(p)son!!!

I re-do the Youtube video with the Clan Thompson .org address at the end. when I get another moment.  Do you have in mind  a specific web page link that interested parties could go to?

[Michael Thompson]

It's wonderful Parker. Timothy and I watched it over breakfast this morning. I also posted it to the Clan Thompson page on Facebook. And Tom, it's TWEETING on Twitter, with Tweeple. 

[Parker Thomson]

Wish I had spelled "Reivers" right.    Next time I'll get some better footage and pics of each person there. The video movie was more of an afterthought. Next get-together- I'll bring Mr. McClelland!
Cheers,

If you are interested in posting some video footage, I think the forum admin could create a separate topic here on the forum just for that.
