Well i have just tried to find Baileys tape (to go in video camera) of him from birth till a year ago and i cant find it anywhere!!!! I thought it would be with the camera like the rest of the tapes but only the empty case with Bays name on it!!! i have no idea where it could be i went through all the other tapes to see whether it was mistakenly taped over but they are all from before Bay was even born so cant have been used to tape over.... I feel sooooooooooo BAD!!! as i can not retape this footage obviously
Any similar experiences are most welcome to be shared please... |

We lost all our first borns photo's as our computer got a major virus and as it was old we could not copy them to disc, we only have the photo's that we got printed for me to put in his scrapbook album I was gutted so know how you feel. -------------

Oh thats what makes me feel worse nictoddie is that exact same thing happened to us also!! we had hundreds of Bays photos on our laptop and had just never gotten around putting them on disc and then the damb thing crashed!!! and we had to reboot it which meant that it would delete all our photos so we only have the photos that my mum had developed of Bay and there wasnt very many of him as a NB
Thats why i feel worse about the tape because once again i have lost something else precious of Bays
Glad im not alone although its such a horrible thing to happen when it comes to memory keepsakes

Right that's it - I'm getting off my butt and burning our photos to CD. Thanks for the reminder. Poor Amber, that really stinks for ya. I hope it turns up eventually - fingers crossed for you. ------------- Andie |

| that sucks. was about to say the same thing happened to a gf re: photos on computer BUT also had all her wedding pics as well! nice ending to this though, she took it to a computer technician who said that nothing could be recovered, got a second opinion and got them all back! I bet you find the tape in about 4 years, behind the sofa or fridge or something. |

Im not sure if i will find it though because we have moved houses and i dont recall comming across it im hoping that my mum knows where it is (although that may be a bit hopeful!) as it was meant to be with her camera at her house BUT last time i used it was at my old house!
I hope this is a reminder for others to burn their photos asap as it totally sucks to loose them! 
We dont seem to have good luck with photos though - because our wedding photographer F****D!! our wedding photos up!!!  so we didnt get any profesional ones although on a good note - we did have 4 other family members who are wizzes with the camera who got alot of really neat photos so all was not lost

I am a complete computer goof, and when I tried to resize photo's for emailing I saved over the original ones with the resized ones. It means we can never get prints of them because the quality of the resized versions is crap and they'd come out all boxy, Hubby was incredulous at my stupidity and still gets mad whenever it comes up  ------------- Mel, Mummy to E: 6, B: 4 and:
