    Thanks westie. That is what comes up when I post, just the bits between the two 'IMG 'codes, but if i click on the photo and options come up, if I choose 'copy image address' and google it, it links back to my account, in full. #puzzled:rotfl:
    N x

    Funny, cos whenever I copy the IMG code and paste it into the reply box I always get the extra bit that I have to delete off.

    I don't know then, sorry. :(
    Something unexpected happened which made me smile and still continues to make me smile.

    oops was it ok lol. Went to bed soon after I posted that. Managed to sleep well, as the bedroom faces north. In this weather that's the only time I appreciate that fact haha, not good in winter.

    Morning all :wave:

    All the talk of building houses, my dad built our house in Scotland took him 3 1/2 years and we lived on site in a very basic caravan. Things i'll never forget:

    The first winter in the caravan was particularly bad, the water pump cracked in two because the temp dropped below -20.

    When it was blizzard conditions we would get snow blown in through the vents.

    Waking up to ice on the inside of the windows.

    Mother successfully cooking Xmas dinner for 4 on the smallest of cookers :eek:

    Using the gas fire to make toast, best toast ever :D

    The constant drum of a generator, no electric on site :eek:

    An argument over windows and which side would open

    A hammer thrown in frustration at the car windscreen :rotfl::rotfl: I was the cause of that happening.

    Eating ice cream whilst sunbathing on the roof, was actually meant to be helping :D

    Moving in at the earliest opportunity kitchen/ bathroom hot water completed. Space!!!

    My parent being mortgage free :j

    We lived in one for 3 months until our house was finished. It was the summer and we extended the caravan with a huge awning. I kept all sorts of stuff in there to free up space in the caravan. I will never forget the smell of getting the ironing board out and actually starting ironing to find out that the local feral cats had been using it to mark their territory:eek:

    check your nectar accounts for random bonus points for shopping at ebay. My account says I shopped between 30/06 and 06/07 so I've been awarded 100 nectar points :j

    except I didn't - I put seeds into a virtual basket but never checked out and they are still in the basket :T

    did anyone get bonus points when the buy from ebay get mystery points added offer was on - on the dark side people where working out that you had to spend at least £1 and the mystery points were added later

    Haha, used tinypic. Thanks enterprise.
    I have all my privacy settings in place on PB, but despite this the pics I post go back to my account. (probably missing something, knowing me, lol) I stopped the autobackup as it kept repeating the backups and I ended up with loads of the same pics.
    Will post some more now :D
