Title: Happy Snaps
Post by: Ryan on August 23, 2016, 07:13:51 PM
Though this would be good idea to post photos that you have either taken yourself , something that you have seen and liked ect.

Animals , plants , scenery , food, or maybe its something that made you smile, a quote you like etc etc etc

Ill start with a sunset photo I took last night @ home , then got a little creative with photo shopping it.

That's beautiful Ryan.  Some of my favorite photos are ones that Cassie took of Australia.  Such unique colors and such beautiful scenery.

Thank you, and I think this will be a fabulous thread!!

Hi Ryan, will happily respond to your request soon.  Great thread by the way, really looking forward to seeing everyone's pictures. But you will have to bear with me - very busy week coming up. G/daughter, DD, is getting married in a week's time. So much to get organised here to enable me to leave the place for 5/6 days while I'm back down in Sussex (thank goodness for our lovely new neighbours who are prepared to take care of 'things' while I'm away). Daughter Cathy has already left for Sussex to help with last minute arrangements, together with youngest G/son - who is going to be in charge of the rings at the wedding (hope he doesn't trip up on his way down the church!!) Cathy and young Kyrian will be coming back to Wales next Wednesday to drop Kyrian back with his Dad, then Cathy picks me up swapping vehicles to mine (a van) as we can get more 'stuff' in mine plus use it for 'storage' while we are away in 'foreign parts' as apart from all my clothes etc (and anything Cathy may have forgotten) we also have to take a single mattress, a couple of blow up mattresses, bedding and most important of all, the dog! DD and Chris (fiance) live in a small country cottage with just two bedrooms, living room, kitchen and bathroom, and Hamish (other G/son) returned from Australia two days ago (plus a load of stuff) to take up the spare room, so on the night before the wedding - and the morning of the wedding day - the cottage will be home to DD (not Chris obviously), Cathy, me, Hamish, one of the bridesmaids, plus Kyrian and his Dad who will have travelled down to join us, not forgetting the two resident dogs plus ours. The morning of the wedding sees the friends who are doing everyone's (ladies that is!) hair for the occasion arriving a 8am.  It's going to be CHAOTIC!!!!!  Think I'll take the dogs for a long walk LOL!! Normal service will be resumed in 10 days time - hopefully!   ;D ;D

I got a new puppy a few months ago -- he's now around 10 months old, and I told Chanda I would post a couple of pictures of him.  He's full of energy, and I'm hoping some will rub off on me!  LOL

This is "Freddie"....

Great to see this thread again with some new great pictures. The wedding that I referred to above in my post of last year (!!) went off perfectly and was a brilliant day - my pictures, of course, are still sitting uselessly on my old computer - still haven't found anyone to transfer them but I will ........... sometime! However on my visit down to see them a couple of weeks ago, Dee Dee kindly transferred the pics from my phone to this computer for me - took her seconds but forget to get her to tell me how to do it as I just couldn't follow her speedy actions! (another trip down to see her in a few months I think!) Well found a happy picture that I had forgotten about just snapped in haste when family was fooling around. It was taken last December on Cathy's birthday when Dee Dee and Hamish (g/son) drove the 220 miles up from Sussex to surprise her. We went to spend the day at the beach at Tenby near here, had a meal and walked the sands. Sorry this is so long but there is a reason lol! Cathy's young son Kyrian had chicken pox at the time which is why he did not come to the family day out, because ............. Dee Dee had been forced to declare that she might be a few weeks pregnant! Test proved that she was - Cathy was over the moon - baby would be due Sept 2017 just about the time of the first Wedding Anniversary. So the beach picture (hope this works).

Anna, when you hit reply , If you look directly down you will see "Attachments and other options", select that , you will then see the heading "Attach'' , slightly under is "Choose file" , this will give you the option of selecting your pictures.

Carly we have had so much rain over winter this year, I am glad it is starting to dry a little. I will send some up for sure .

Anna , so happy the wedding was a lovely day and congratulations on the baby news :)

That's beautiful!!  But I'm wondering....my dad always said, "Red sky at night, sailors delight -- red sky in morning, sailors take warning".  So, how was the weather during the day?
Title: Re: Happy Snaps
Post by: Ryan on July 09, 2018, 08:09:14 PM
Thankyou :)

So here , we say "Red Sky in the morning , Sheppard's Warning" "Red Sky at night, Sheppard's delight"

It was pretty spot on actually, Its been so windy and done nothing but rain the last 3 days. Its very wet at home !!
