Shooting People

Last summer I was chilling on Sa Trinxa beach, cava sangria in hand and having a great time chatting with my mates having just watched the latest running jump by a naked man who is trying to raise funds for a new titanic when two women abruptly sat down on our (unusued) sunloungers and proceeded to make themselves comfortable. There was a certain amount of indignancy and I pointed out that the loungers had to a) be paid for and b) had been by us.

The cheeky response came back, well you're not using them right now are you?!

It was the beginging of a beautiful friendship: less than 10m later we were all huddled together chatting, it turned out one of them was a wandering reporter / producer and the other her accompanying photographer.

Anyway, Paula, who is in London now working for the BBC financed a video in the Robbie Williams 'Shooting People' competition and won, you have to check it out, it's so slick.
