    We saw them last week, ET, after a long walk on the sands. We were surprised how many there were and that most of them appeared nearer black than red though

    Edit. Can't get a proper handle on this new forum, hence the now triple posting.yell

    Great to see you both again. Glad that you got home without any problems. There's been a major accident on the A55 near here and there were serious hold-ups. Lots of blue flashing lights heading in both directions along the dual carriageway.

    Off to son's house tomorrow to do some remedial work on his kitchen floor, plus fill some gaps below sockets in his replastered walls, plasterers did not do a good job it seems.

    They have ordered new carpets and sofas, so hopefully they will have arrived and we will have somewhere to sit!

    Today has been pretty miserable here,dreich and wet.  Posted all our cards, plus a wooden bowl I made as a wedding present for a friend's daughter.

    OH is starting her Christmas list........things we need to buy to make our contribution to Christmas dinner.....will go out shopping mid week.

    It looks a miserable sort of day, but it's going to get festive here later. A large bare real tree is sitting in the hall waiting for some attention, and there's an artificial one stashed away in the box room ready to come down with all the boxes of decorations.

    I can count 7 Malc. It's the buttons in this new forum, they are a bit hit and miss. Not sure what your using, but if a pad or a phone, both work better in Landscape. Most folks avatars seem to have come across, so might be worth having a word with Rochelle, to see if she can get it reinstated.

    Goldie I put a reply with a link to a photo resizer in the photos and videos thread, on how to use club together. Would copy it here, but links don't seem to copy anymore.

    Sorry! I should have resized that photo. I still haven't downloaded a suitable App for my Ipad. Not sure which one to use?

    It seems to be different experiences on all the devices, I can't see your Avatar on my laptop Pete but I can see some. On my phone I can't see anyone's or even any photos. I usually can.

    The site has been a bit slow since the change over so best to give it a few seconds before resubmitting which I suspect has lead to your multiple posts. I suspect that you should assume that many old notifications might not work because many posts have changed locations. People seem to be getting notifications set up on newer posts if that helps.

    SL, I've noticed for some obscure reason if you hit the reply button above the centre it seems to work 1st time on my pad, if I hit it in the middle it takes a few taps-crazy I know but it works for melaughing

    Who  ever it  is  watching  you,  Goldie,  seems  to have  an  inflated 

    opinion  of  himself  !!wink

     

    As  I  said  once  before,  I  rather  like whats  happening  to  your  pictures --  if  I click  on  'em  to  enlarge  I  can  use  the  side/bottom  bars  to  move  the  image  up/down/sideways  to  have  a  close  inspection  of  the  subject.  That's  Brilliant  for  the  dogs,  berries  and  suchlike,  so  I DO  HOPE  IT  DOES  NOT  GET  ALTERED

    Sorry  for shouting
