A Month In Review

Well it's a little more than a month in review but I finally got a few pictures posted on this blog.

Yeah!!!! It's about time!!

I've been trying for several weeks to upload photos from our files onto this blog and it is frustratingly slow. I'd set it all up, choose the photos, plan the text and click 'upload now', only to sit and wait, and wait, and wait while our seemingly slow broadband connection would upload the pictures. It got to the point where I'd give up and walk away or go to bed (as I was usually trying to do this late at night). The next day there'd be no indication that anything had succeeded so I'd forget about it until I felt unfrustrated enough to give it another go. Even Martin tried a few days ago, seemingly without success.

Well then I found the 'drafts' folder for my blog and what was in there? All my 'attempted' uploads sitting waiting to be published.

So you'll have to scroll down a bit and read backwards. The postings are there with photos back as far as the end of October. I'm not going to go through it all again just to post them under the current date. They're published according to the dates I'd originally attempted to get them posted. This doesn't mean the uploads will go any faster now. It just means all my previous time spent is not wasted.

So read on, scroll down and have a look at the few pictures of our journey so far.

Photos usually load way fast if you compress them using a photo editor. They usually have a web option. Photo files straight out of the camera are huge.

Great to see some pics.
