This a first attempt at a new feature which should be a great addition to the blog, it does need a bit of work but so far it looks good.
I can't watch it on my iMac Robert - it asks me to install Microsoft software and I won't do that. Super blog - I love your pics. I'm the one who sent you the slide show with Derek & Vicky on it! When you can, please post pics of Tarn Hows, I'm in love with that place. Very best wishes, Brian
