I can't see why, unless your last unnecessary sentence provokes a response that turns into a load of name-calling It is a beautiful picture Last edited by derekdwc; 10th Jul 2012 10:37am.

No problem with that, just wish they'd do it after a couple of days to give folk who aint seen these photos a chance to see them. I'd like to think that there are young kids seeing these photos and they might, just might develop a liking of their History. Ha, who am I kidding...

Please keep posting your pics. there have been some really good ones.

I think you will find that they are not 'disappearing', just being sorted into the correct running threads. Each time one is moved a pointer (black arrow on the left of the post) remains for ten days which takes you to the new location of the picture
