    Morning all/afties Pat

    I see you're all Eurovisioned and partied out. I don't know - you young people.....imageimage

    I caught up with Hinterland and fell asleep for a while. I ache more now from coughing than from my walk  image

    Don't think I could face that breakfast at any time Dove. Got any croissants? image

    Hope OH is better today Joyce and you can get a bit of a rest. Worrying for you. I did get some lovely photos of The Bookil yesterday and I thought of you when I was taking them. Views were terrific. Will put some on the camera thread if I can get them to upload.

    BL - I can't get the photo thing to work very well at all either. It won't upload anything bigger than 2mb, whereas before it would do any size - many of mine are over 6 or 7 mb. We don't have the external upload facility either - I used photobucket and it was ideal. I see that DavidK has raised the issue with the team so perhaps they can reinstate that too. 

    I'll have a look round to see what else you've been up to while have another cuppa and see if I can  find my taste buds image

    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....

    Morning - sore head but never mind - it was worth it - who would have thought Tom H had a thing for velcro?... image

    Sorry 'bout the mess Dove - I'll do the bottle bank run later - think I'll need the trailer though...image

    So what's happened to the website now? Last night I was posting all sorts of incontinent rubbish from my iPad - then suddenly I couldn't do edits anymore and this morning I can't use it for posting. Have had to get out of bed and use the desktopimage.

    I'm getting the same messages I saw other people posting a few days ago.

    Somebody must be playing with the settings... I'll report it to Daniel and Norah tomorrow. 

    Joyce - Hope things are better for OH today.

    Morning all! Shush...don't wake the late risers or the delicate! image 

    Dove, Thanks for the breakfast! Mmm image 

    Hope everyone has suitably recovered, imageimage

    Hope OH is feeling better Joyce, best wishes x

    Need another coffee, feeling a bit tender, sore lower back, must remember never to weed the path again!...if only!

    Have a good day all!

    Hope I haven't passed on my lurgy to you Lantana - although mine wasn't self inflicted...image

    RB - bearing in mind the rumours about what The Krankies like to get up to - I'd be very wary of being squashed between them....imageimageimageimage

    Second washing out. Have to go and get more tiles and grout. My life's one long party from dawn till dusk.

    Then I may try and get a sleep. I have Hosta syndrome at the moment - awake for hours through the night. I need to do the front grass though. I knew it was a mistake feeding it last month image

    Afternoon all ☺

    Joyce, ((hugs)) to you xx Hope OH is better today ☺

    Was at my own Euro party last night... well at a friends for drinks ?? and we had the TV on. Thought the 'viewers' votes made it complicated but rather exciting! ? Not sure how I avoided a sore head this morning, I drank quite a lot of Vodka last night ?

    Lily, if your tablet is in portrait mode the ads are inbetween the posts, if you turn it to landscape they are on the side ☺

    Fairy, hope you are feeling better today and we don't need one of these ?

    Better dash, getting off the bus soon ?☺

    Ahhh, so you bought that strange man and his bike to Doves RBimage  Not guilty at spiking your drink, think you just had one too many lol RB. Don't recall the Krankies either, but then again my mind was concentrating on other matters imageimage  Do have odd socks as well tho!  Maybe we should meet up at Odd Sock Priory image

    Sorry Joyce missed your post about your OH yesterday. Hope he is much better today. Hugs and best wishes.

    Fairygirl, I only have a Canon Ixus, but I've had to change its settings to take smaller photos of the garden to put them on here. But it's a shame for you because you take such superb photos.

    Lovely day today. Must go and plant the runner beans when I've had my coffee.

    Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.

    BL - that's very kind. I wondered if I could alter the camera settings too, but I had a look at the instructions and it's all Greek to me  image 

    It's a bit of a faff having to alter the size - each one is different and you can't have a 'one size fits all' to apply to every photo, which would help. It doesn't help that it should still upload most of the photos but it won't do anything bigger than 2mb just now - not the 5mb it's supposed to do. If the techies can't change it, I'll have to ask DavidK if he can help! image
