The Pointless Page

Thanks  for the info brue, were are really looking forward to it 

Well, reading about some of the weather folks have been getting this week, we have been very lucky. We did a huge drive circuit across the Moors this afternoon, and I have never ever seen it so dry. All the streams are very low, not much running off peat uplands, and it has a parched look to it where the new heather and other plants are yet to bud up. It's not bone dry all over, but you can walk onto Moors away from paths... normally you get covered in black gloopy peat!

We saw the loveliest little black lambs all pinging around near Hutton le Hole as well, some were really tiny, not sure what they were. Not Herdwicks, as they were jet black, but had Herdwick like horns.

Got up late early this morning.  Worked hard at doing nothing with the benefit that it was all tax free apart from the tenner Mrs One purloined from my wallet.  Baby sat the twins, read them some books and they fell asleep just prior to me dropping off.  Cooked supper and now contemplating whether profiteroles would bring a bit of a moorish end to a satisfying day

Well it's taken all day for me to achieve something constructive, if you can call it constructive? I have finally managed to add photos to a story about adding photos to stories following David Klyne's and a staff post on a story without photos. I had commented on the story concerned about it not being easy to post photos. I feel I was set a challenge and I rose to it and I succeeded. But the effort involved means I may never do it again. 

If you want to see photos of the inside of a supermarket in Hamilton New Zealand check out the story but you'll have to read the comments to find the photos 😉

I'm off to bed now to recover! I had had a very chilled/lazy day after routine chores knitting in the conservatory, I reckon if I'd had a proper day I wouldn't have attempted or completed the exercise. I fear I'd have said naughty words or chucked the equipment 😤

B2 sounds like a full time job to me, but I guess the achievement is quite satisfying

I think a full time job would be easier and there's pay! I doubt very much that I'll post a photo again on here, but I felt that maybe it was just me saying it was difficult as David Klyne's doesn't seem to think so neither did a member of staff. I have satisfied myself that it is a faff and I have not been beaten and can hold me head up high.  But I don't voluntarily undertake tortuous tasks. Lesson learned 😉.

It is a faff B2, but you did it, many haven't even attempted it! I have learnt quite a bit about using my computer and phone thanks to the challenges of CT. 

Anyway, well done, you've now got the badge and the Tshirt!

Three simple clicks on my favourite forum, and photos appear like magic, a good size as well!

On here? I have a life to lead and value my time on this Earth!

10 out of 10 for perseverance above and beyond website usage!

this site is chronic this morning anyone else noticed ,think I might ring up and ask them for my membership fees back ,bet they say no what's the use of a website if you cant use it 

The art of the impossible

I suppose because I have a website which in itself is quite a steep learning curve to get things to load where you want them so after that CT is relatively easy. It is easier if you have a story you want to contribute almost everything is possible with the desire to achieve it. There are little tricks that you learn along the way. I always write stories in Word and then copy and paste when finished. I save the photos I want to use to the desktop at the required size. From there is is a fairly easy procedure to complete and post the story.
