I just went outside to hang the washing in the sun. It may be bright out there but it's so very cold. I come back inside and look at this and realise that no matter how cold it is here it's colder somewhere else!!!

I put another thicker, warmer jumper on.

This is something I can definitely relate to and I'm guessing that so can a few other's in our little group.

Flikr and Me

Now as anyone that truly knows me, knows that I am NOT a photo taking person. In fact I find it hard to even remember that I own a camera (even when on holiday). So to set up a flikr account was one of the hardest things I could have set out to do!!

Taking the tour made it all look so very easy. Yes I do suppose that it was easy until i had to find some photos to upload. I guess that I was lucky in that I went on hol's in Tassie last year and that I was made to take my camera and to take lots and lots of photos. Well I thought that it was lots and lots but my mate Jack said "Is that all!!!" after I had shown her.
I guess you cant please all the people all the time.

When I loaded them into flikr I spent quite a long time rotating them and naming them, but now when I go and have a look the names have disappeared. I'm not happy about that but I will perservere and keep trying to get them named.
