You know, I could probably have made my trip to Swansea sound more interesting than I did when I posted about it the other week. I hardly said anything about the filming in silly costumes. I basically filmed Julie and her housemate messing around doing silly stuff in costume and then made a music video out of it. We tried to film in Tesco with Julie dressed up as a princess and Becky dressed as a superhero. However as soon as we walked through the car park in costume with me with the camcorder, a security guard approached us and told us we weren't allowed to film there. What I find amusing is that I was stopped from filming something fairly innocuous in Tesco's car park, whereas last year I filmed Will running around with a fairly realistic looking fake gun in Safeway's car park and no one batted an eyelid, maybe they were scared of the gun. Plus there are never any security guards in Safeway and we stayed away from the store itself, just grabbing a trolley and moving it to a trolley bay and stuff.

The moral of this story is: when filming stupid stunts use a shop with no security guards, or maybe it's: always carry a fake gun?

I don't know why you can't film in Tesco, is it in case you give them bad publicity or something? Or are spying on them? I don't know. I guess they have their reasons.
