Great pictures Moulsey and Millie. I've just downloaded an app onto my phone which makes converting photos to the right size easy. (Photo and Picture Resizer)

On the subject of takeaway pizza's, I can confirm that the one we had last week will be my last ever! Still suffering. Great way to lose some weight though.

........there a button on the app which takes you to the photos it has resized so that you can click on and delete them after you have uploaded them to CT. I'll be deleting the resized ones after I've uploaded so I still keep the best quality ones, and don't get them mixed up.
I downloaded the app from Google Play Store.

OK, have downloaded the app, now let's see if it works with these 3 beauties amongst the bluebells in Idless Woods last week!

Vive Le Photo!
Today I decided to take a break from sorting my mother's hearing aids (again) the elderly neighbours general muddle and daughter's boyfriend's failed van MOT (could he have another lift!)
Drove down to West Bay, had a nice lunch at Slader's Yard and looked at Philip Sutton art exhibition followed by walk in glorious sunshine round the harbour. Ah, feel better now! Hope the photo works!

,'Time Factor !! ?? Hmmm, Left there at just before 16.00,but the work also included the removal of the main beam headlight ,due to water ingress .This was only fitted two weeks ago ,BUT but fitted incorrectly ,so no charge to me ..Total costs for the 20.000/nine year service was £ 347 .Not bad 'me-thinks .

Just looked so the two halves of country weather-wise on BBC. Wished I hadn't! Now really fed up 😢. Grey lasted all day, small breaks in the cloud but not enough to entice me outside as the wind is really really chilly.
Beautiful photo brue.
Not a bad price tricky. Did it seem like a long day?
Downloaded David's app but still can't see how to insert it 😲. Think I'll stick with emailing to myself only drawback is that it has to be done singularly!

Great to see the lovely photos, will have to find the app. Although tend to take more photos on the camera rather than phone.
Took some of the bluebells yesterday, just got to transfer them to the computer.
Rather grey and rather chilly today, bit disappointing after yesterday. Did get washing dry though
Not much done today, only work. Got pile of ironing to do tonight though.

The app I have started to use on my Android phone, which according to Moulsey, works on an Android tablet too is 'Photo and Picture Resizer'. It's downloadable from Google Play Store.
More often than not I use my phone for photos these days so it makes it easy. I haven't changed my Avatar for 5 years - since CT started - so can't vouch for its avatar friendliness.

After resizing the photo coe back to CT and click on Add Photos at the bottom of the post. It then asks me to 'Choose an action'. On my phone it gives me 4 options: Camera, Camcorder, Voice and Documents. I click on Documents, and I navigate to the photos from there by choosing either Gallery or Images - it depends where the photos are on your phone. You should then be able to choose a photo.

Busy day today. Started with a visit to GP at the crack of dawn for result of X-ray on foot that has been causing me problems. It appears I have extensive arthritis so have been given a Px for naproxen to be taken as and when it flares up. He then took my BP and said it was fine - just keep taking the tablets - hey ho. Came home and did the ironing and then Mr H and I picked up a couple of friends and we all went for a pub lunch before a visit arranged by our local Museum Society to see the remains of the Stamford Canal which now runs through various private gardens. Vey interesting and then we all came back to ours for a cup of tea and a catch up.

And how are things in the beautiful lake district today, Ian? Seems like you're having good weather up there - if you could just arrange for it to spread down to Lancashire for the rest of the week it'd be appreciated!
Have you managed to get down to Dalemain yet?

Thank brue. I am learning to be careful about the shoes I wear so unfortunately so my days of elegant footwear have finished. I have also had to stop our outings with our walking group as walking miles across ploughed fields and over lots of stiles wasnt doing it much good so we now have to choose our walks on even paths. It could be worse though. I felt quite young and lively compared to some in the waiting room. Our Museum Society is beginning to lose numbers unfortunately as we have gone down from about 100 to about 60. We need some new younger members so we are having a recruitment drive over the summer.

This where I'll be slumming it fr the next few weeks. Thought Liz would do better, still I suppose she has to watch your money I suppose
Anyone recognise the view?

I would recommend the Slate mine tours at Honister Slate mine. A good underground tour lasting an hour. Dare you to do the optional Via Ferrata. I did it three years ago, oh and the extreme one!

Another blue sky, sunny day here in the Lakes, but a slightly cool breeze. Almost needed a jacket at one point!
We walked around Derwentwater today......lovely. Never seen the water level so low though.
Moulesy - we have Dalemain on the list (only arrived yesterday!) and we clocked it as we drove along the A66 just past the M6.
Corners - remember watching a documentry about the guy who set up the Honister visitor centre and his battles with the planners when trying to establish the Via Ferrata and a zip wire. He was killed flying his Gazelle helicopter home one cloudy evening, before finishing the documentary. Quite a character.
