PHXPhlyer & Limeygirl, I've sent PM's. If anyone else is having trouble seeing pics, could you please let me know what sort of machine/operating system you're trying to use it on.

Firefox on Linux here.

If I right-click on where the image should be on the "Items for sale page" and attempt to open it in a window on its own, it gives me a 403 Forbidden error, so you might have some access permissions wrong.

Thanks. I'll get in touch with the hosting company. I've only used their help desk a couple of times, but they've been pretty good.

Thanks all. It seems that if you're using iOS on Mac, all is ok (please let me know if this is wrong). Otherwise, results are unpredictable. I suspect that this is because over the years, standards for browsers have changed and my site no longer complies with some. It looks like I will have to use a more modern template/builder.
Thanks for your help, sorry for the inconvenience.

Hydro - I'm not familiar with the Mac 'web builder' program, but most of your main page image code contains

"<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
<meta http-equiv="Cache-control" content="no-cache">
<meta http-equiv="Pragma" content="no-cache">
<meta http-equiv="Expires" content="0">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<title>403 Forbidden</title>"

which seems a little odd! I have not dived deeper into your web page coding.

On all your pages I see image 'holders' but no images. Summat ain't right!

Still nothing on W10 Edge, Firefox and Chrome. While you are 'there', several of your 'links' are broken and the 'subscribe' link needs attention.

Evening folks. Town day. Most things done. Got dosh from the UK to pay for the thatching. Final clear up done. Apart from flattened plants everything back to normal now.

Good morning: some sunshine earlier but cloud arrived and descends;
some drizzle - the kind that is so fine one wonders whether it's just static before the eyes, but I see rainwater dribbling from the neighbour's spouting;
5.5°C, 88% humidity;
heatpump running in living-room and a heater on a thermostat in both the dining-room and the entry-hall.

I did see the moonlight last night as it was relatively unclouded and frosty then.

Winter :)

Noticed today that all my framed pictures on the walls had gone crooked, and one tedious little ornament, which falls over if you look at it, had fallen over, so have completed a Felt Report for the nearest earthquake. It *may* have awoken me at the time, can't remember.

Morning folks. Scattered Cu. The bats have not returned since the thatching. We are sure they will.

Karearea, use the CSEM / EMSC app to monitor earthquakes.
