http://www.ceepackaging.com http://www.pbn.com.pl http://www.youtube.com/alanheath This is the view of one of the mouths of the Vistula river - this time at Nowy Port in Gdańsk. From this position one has not only a good view of the free port but also of Westerplatte - one of the points were it is claimed the first shots of world war two were fired. I argue here that those shots - fired from the cruiser Schleswig Holstein may not have been pariticularly effective due to the trajectory of the guns although I stand to be corrected. My channel on you tube : http://www.youtube.com/alanheath is one of the most prolific from Poland. I have produced a number of films, most in English but also in Polish, French, Italian, Spanish and the occasional hint of German and Hebrew. My big interest in life is travel and history but I have also placed films on other subjects There are a number of films here on the packaging industry. This is because I am the publisher of Central and Eastern European Packaging -- http://www.ceepackaging.com - the international platform for the packaging industry in this region focussing on the latest innovations, trends, design, branding, legislation and environmental issues with in-depth profiles of major industry achievers. Most people may think packaging pretty boring but it possibly effects your life more than you really imagine! In 1997 I founded Polish Business News http://www.pbn.com.pl .There are a number of business related films here and I intend to do many more on CRM (customer relations management). My blog can be found via http://www.ceepackaging.com and http://www.pbn.com.pl and contains background information and more details of many of my films. This information is in English.
