Looking forward to more pictures..

Guys I wonder if we have to wait till OM comes online to see what we have to do next, I would suspect we have to have him ok our requests and then it should be a go. We had the same trouble as well. I hope we get it sorted and this eve we here are going to try our best to load you up with a few different shots as well. Today we (Raven, Voodoo, Chris, Spot and I) are going to Westminster Abbey (how cool is that) and then to a Jack the Ripper thang tonite I can't wait. Oh how entertaining this place has been. I know it is just words and you all are starving for pics and we are going to get there. Good thing you all are patient.

Cheers M

You will be pleased to hear that the sun is shining this morning, and the day ahead looks really promising. I was even standing around this morning in the Lobby wondering where you were, waiting for you to turn up for breakfast! You make sure that you have a great day!!!

Ahhhh, don't feel all alone, we may not be able to chat face to face, but we always all still here with you, so you are never truly alone!! :-4

Yes, Raven was so kind to make us crumpets and scrambled egg for breakfast, and it was GORGEOUS!!! Oh we hope that you have a great day too, and this will probably be my last couple of posts from Raven's house, and I am going to be so sad, when I leave tommorow, as you know we have all had such a great time, meeting everyone, seeing the sights and having just so much fun!!! I'm sure that we will have another soon, and then we will all be able to have another fantastic event again, as we have had over the last couple of days!!

Same here, Bez...I even registered with MSN so that Weeder and I could view but it informs me that I have to message OM to gain permission

How is your day at work? :-4

Yes, Bez, we are...we've spent the day just lounging around and are off to see the sea in a minute, then on to my daughter and son in law's for supper. The sun keeps breaking through but, as I've told Weeder, don't blink or you'll miss it.

It was a lovely weekend with lovely hosts and a wonderful group of people...now we're just "chilling."

I still haven't contributed properly to this thread...I shall get around to it in a day or two.

It appears that we have to be on each other's contact list. This is why Snooze had no problem viewing the photos. On the other hand, Carla should be able to see them.

Sorry about all that. I didn't know that permissions had to be set.

The Friends list isn't available to me at the moment. So, the easiest way is to register for MSN Messenger and then add me to your contact list. Unfortunately, as I can't upload photos onto the Photo Gallery, this was the only other way I could think of making the pics available for the time being.

devist8me · Post by **devist8me** » Tue May 09, 2006 10:21 am

Ok, I added you. But it says you don't have msn passport so your getting sent an email? Not sure about that, but maybe we're headed in the right direction.

chonsigirl · Post by **chonsigirl** » Tue May 09, 2006 10:24 am

Can't you post them here at FG?

That is where the pics belong, we want to see them, I don't want the messenger stuff or My Space. (it is forbidden in my house to have My Space anymore, after several deaths connected with that site)

:-1

I want to see my friends.................................please post the photos, Open.

I'll have to see what I can do. The Photo Gallery isn't working as Anastasia will confirm. He's been working on it for some time now.

I agree about My space for a different reason - it's too much hassle really. Thought it would be more straight forward than this.

I'll have to try and find somewhere to host the pics that will allow me to post them on the thread.

That's Theia on the left of Minks mugging for the camera, isn't it? And look how cute Chris is.

Although they're all below the maximum size of 1MB, which is PhotoBucket's maximum size before downsizing, they have been downsized anyway.

On my PC, I can get up close to read the time on Big Ben. The resolution is excellent in the original.

I just love it when you hugs me Chonsi.

I didn't get as many as I wanted, so I'm disappointed with myself.

However, I know there are loads more out there just waiting to be posted. Mine will just whet your appetites.

I'm surprised the one on the coach came out at all. There was not point in aiming. The coach was rolling about so I just stood up, faced backwards, tried to look through the non-existent viewfinder (it was a 2 and a half inch screen), pressed the button, and fell back into my seat.
