Following my latest technological embarrassment (deleting the entire membership list of the gallery) the old man left the following comment I wonder if there is another family in the world engaging in this conversational crossfire with such insulting good humour= madly unique, or uniquely mad? Which made me think… as I do from time to … More Family forums.
Considering making the ‘holding’ directory ‘password protected. It wouldn’t make a lot of difference to anyone who *really* wanted to get in, or who searched via Google for instance since it’s not that easy to prevent images being viewed on an open server, but it would make casual visitors slow down. I’m only querying it … More More on the gallery.
Was talking to a guy on Friday who had been burgled recently. He was telling us how he, his wife and daughters had been in the house at the time and how the thievess s had bashed their dog to keep it quiet, taken the keys to his and his wife’s cars, loaded them with … More It's a bit alarming.

I thought it was about time to add in a photo of yours truly to light up your life. This particular photo was taken this morning and shows me in all my glory… ah what a handsome creature I am eh?? 🙂 Just to make sure posterity is able to find me at any time … More Updated one of my pages…
