But of a strange one this but I have a bunch of super8 film and VHS recordings from my dad and was wondering if anyone knows a company on the island who could convert these to digital format

Thali Indian Express - @Toon

Being a bit of an Indian food fan, I looked at the reviews and menu.

It looks like a great place to wait while the shop sorts out the videos.

I'm pretty sure the films would be sent away, but if they did it in house, it would take a week or so.

A week eating Indian food = heaven on earth 😅

We did it in-house but it takes the time of the video as it has to be played. The first time I did this was converting my school's Betamax to VHS, but I made a bean or two doing the same when I had an electronics shop.

I've worked in the industry, so I know. Stick to your part of the world and keep out of OURS!

So have, for 30 years, so I know very well. However, I would request you avoid being so rude.
