Are we really that similar??
Hello guys. It's Harry Boy here.
Now then, i'm here to talk about the interesting phenomena that is... People thinking that Harry Boy and Frank Pol are actually the same person or that they are twins. And frankly, I'm here to put an end to this crazy madness!
For years now it's baffled me and Francis to consistently have people tell us how similar we look because i don't think we feel we are that similar.. Yet it continues to happen everywhere we go.
I once walked into a hair dresser in Victoria Park where i'd never been before. To have the lady doing my hair start talking to me as if she knew me. Which was nice at first, but once she started asking questions like, "hows the basketball and the camera work at the church going?" to which i replied "ummmmmm yeah good.." i started to get a little disturbed as to how she knew so much about me and had me questioning in my mind whether or not i had actually been there before or not... It was once she started asking me questions about what it was like growing up in corrigin that i became really disturbed and had to stop her and find out how she knew so much about me. And then i realised i was in the hairdresser where Francis always goes! It was pretty funny, she actually thought i was him! haha.
Another classic example is after Francis and Joelles wedding... When i had about 5 different riverview church attenders come up and congratulate ME on getting married! haha.. And then there's instances where people even on our very beloved filmcrew who have known each of us for 3-4 years have asked one of us "So what's it like being twins?"
I even recently had a good friend of mine on the filmcrew (who may or may not be a 16yr old boy from team 5) tell me he thought i was older than Francis! Saying he didn't know because we look too similar.... To say the least this shocked me..
All this is very interesting given that Francis was born on the 5th of October 1981 and i was born on the 20th of April 1985!! That's a 4 year age gap!! It's impossible to have twins that are 4 years apart you know!!
The thing is.. It's quite easy to distinguish as far as im concerned, Francis is much shorter and bulkier than me... and i'm taller, skinnier and way better looking! so it's not really that hard to work out is it?
Would it be easier if 1 of us turned our hair blue or something?
What really is it about us that makes us so similar?
I just don't get it..

Here's the new intro for our tv show RiverviewLIVE.
We're pleased to be sending out new look episodes this week, featuring updated intros, transitions, credits etc, and most significantly the new songs from our album 'And Sing.'
The new 16:9 episodes will give us some great pilots to be able to send out to other tv stations also, so who knows what exciting things could be in store for riverviewLIVE this year!

New Kid on the block!
Hi everyone.
Please meet Anna-Victoria. She's just joined the crew and is in my team learning multimedia. She's from Brazil and she's 14 which i believe steals Reuben's position as youngest video crew member!! (bad luck reubs..)
Anyway, Anna-Vic has formally requested a nickname. She would like an RVTV t-shirt as quick as possible and following in the trend of Frank Pol, Harry Boy, Miagi and Chippy.... she too would like a ridiculous name that has absolutely no meaning at all...
So please bloggers, put on your thinking caps. So far the suggestions are "Sugarloaf" , "the pearl of brazil" and "the golden lion monkey"
As you can see, we need ideas!
