Oh, our official photographer took about...300?? :lol: Hoping some of them will eventually appear here... especially as LAT, Looby and I have been very busy today making an extremely important art installation specially for you all to see. ;)

Been to Tynemouth and the Angel of the North* today, then got blown back down the M1 and home. Well, I'm home, not sure about the others yet... :?

*no, I didn't mean MBH even though he does qualify for the title!! :lol:

Had a great weekend. Thank you all for your company and for all the laughs along the way. Sorry that those of you who wanted to come couldn't...needless to say you were missed, but we'll catch you next time. :D :D

I got home about 10.30!
Tired today but have been rushing around. My house/garden OK after the storm but the fence between my mum's and aunt's bungalows is down so will need to sort that. I have a meeting tonight but hopefully will get the chance to put some photos up tomorrow while the gasman is here before I head off to Bristol

I know. All I can see when I take a photo on the phone in the daylight is a reflection of my wrinkles... :lol: I do really like that photo of the Giraffe and the Elephant (without the ears) though. :D Not a brilliant photo, but they both look really happy. :D

Funnily enough I have lots of very similar photos! :lol: Except I think the one I took at the pub is much better - for one thing it doesn't have me in it! :D

I'm impressed that you know how to get photos off your phone. I've never worked out how you do it!

That sounds like a teaching opportunity for me ;) Is it just your camera or do you need 'file management' training too? [I'm sneaky - I see it all as the same thing] :D

I don't have a cable or a hole to put a cable in, to connect my phone to the computer, so I just don't know how you do it.
