Hi Alchemilla
First I save the photo to photobucket.
On Mr MWC's more modern laptop, I right click on the photo in my photobucket library, copy the image URL, click on insert image in the MSE message toolbar, paste the URL, click OK.
On my very old laptop, I can copy the photo in photobucket and paste directly into the MSE message.
Hope this helps Mortgage at highest (April 2008): ~£195,000

As of 5 minutes ago, our total mortgage debt is <£150,000
:j:T:j:T:j:T:j:T:j:T:j
We've OPd £1,965 of Mr MWC's share money - that allows for 15 days of interest so we will end August a few pennies under £150,000 :cool:
Now that the cheque has cleared, the rest of the share money has gone into a savings account until Mr MWC arranges a S&S ISA
It probably didn't make best financial sense to use some of it for a MOP but it feels great to be in the £140,000s
