I did with those 3D specs....

The pic must be over a year old, Mel left Rentokil just before christmas a year ago.. (thats her Kangoo and Works van, my cars out and about, and the Ifor Williams went last summer..

My next door neighbour is selling his house (begrudgingly - divorce) and Martha managed to sneak into the pic to show off her new stickers :mrgreen:

Yay!

good thinking Jammy, not posting the link, and just saving the pics, much safer :wink:

Hi Drinks..
if you make the image fullscreen then press the "Print Screen" or "Prt Sc" button on your keyboard..

you can then paste the image straight into either "Paint" (start > Programs > accessories > paint) or another program - like photoshop etc and then save it as a JPEG / BMP file type.. then off to photobucket and the rest is history (after a crop and a tidy up / resize)

PM me if you get stuck.

John

ps - Cheekychick.. Lovely place.. you can't be far from my parents.. they retired and bought a smallholding with cows, pigs chickens etc outside Y-FFor - ( Pwllheli - gwynedd) Nice part of the world!

Pwllheli is quite nice. Just finished a college course there. Only ever seen it as it was starting to get dark though as its 50 miles from me. May be going back soon to do a follow up course.
I also drink Port and I'm not ashamed to say it!

I have been to Pwllheli butlins when I was about 18ish....some fella got killed on the boomerang rollercoaster while we queued up to get on it...his was one of the attendants...tryed to be all cocky and clever by jumping over the track as the train came down...but timed it wrong and got cut in half...the people in the front car got hurt to...
Dont remember much of Pwllheli other than odd bit of butlins thats gone now...as was too pi55ed all week :drink: :drink: :drink:
