Even the 'My Account' page just would npot show the new piccie. I had to refresh (but only thought of it after half a dozen tries at replacing the Avatar). Hope you think its fair bonzer, mate. Personally I still prefer the pic with the (brown) paper bag, if only I could find it. My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

The pic was taken at Durham Miners Gala (aka as The Big Meeting) this year by a guy called Terry, who I'd never even met before. For some reason other photographers want to take pics of me (I suppose its because if the camera can survive that it can survive almost anything). They tell me I'm an 'old fashioned photographer' (with an EOS?) or a 'character', although they haven't prefixed the word with 'bad' yet. My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

I tried to answer a couple of times but it always got rejected (I think my 'radiolondra' gets tagged as spam lol ). Will try again to let you have my address. However, postacard from Italy will be on its way for you soon:). My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions
