Re: Rebuild the Greyhound Pub Campaign #rebuildthegreyhound

I have to take issue with Eagle on this [quote="Eagle"

You can leaflet the apartments , but I suspect most will not want a noisy pub very close. I could , of course , be wrong.

Re: photographs of foxes

I agree with Paul. How many other professions ( apart from musicians )are expected to work for free?
Even amateur photographers should expect to be paid for their images.

Re: Local It advice sought

I use external hard drives connected to Macs to store and transfer image between computers.
It may be different for PCs

If you drag a file to the trash, you have to empty the trash while the drive is still connected. If you don't the file will disappear from the file list but not from the memory. I ...

Hi Chelsey
I have had a quick look at the V&A's image catalogue and found these three objects that were diplayed at the Crystal Palace and are now in the museum.
All the other images are of CP related memorabilia and printed material.

Plaster cast of the Effigy of King John in Purbeck marble, ca ...

I often drive over this crossing after dark. The lights of oncoming cars, even if dipped, blind you because of the slope of the bridge.
