Seems that as we go through life, everyone gets a turn with "Technical Difficulties!"  :D ;)

Glad we're back!!

Me too.  I don't know why they took so long but I noticed on my mobile that it was back up this morning.

I've been away from home for a few days in the Peak District, so I couldn't badger them like I normally would !

Glad to see it all seems fine now, need to catch up on a few things.  See ya later !

Ahh! he lives, was starting to wonder where you had got to Freddy.

I’ve never been to the Peak District, what’s it like?

Tons of beautiful photos of Peak District and surrounding countryside.

Really nice!!

 ;D  A little busy to be honest yes, but I do have a lot of photos.  I'll post them later on today.

Datahopa, the Peaks are beautiful you should go. We had nice weather too which was a bonus.  My sister just moved across there recently and we went to visit.

Here's a few photos, just a small portion of what I took.

I added a image viewing script a week or so back and now it comes in useful.  If you click on the first image you should be able to flick through them all easily.  Or play a slide show too which will slide through them all.

These first four are of a place called 'Surprise View'... a bit of a climb to the top of a hill, well worth it.

The first one here, is of Derwent reservoir - where the RAF Lancaster bombers practised with the bouncing bomb.

The one of the river is the River Derwent, it was very nice there.  Really clean river too.

Then the remaining photos are around Chatsworth House, a very posh digs with amazing gardens.

And finally some more of Chatsworth Gardens...

The fountain was reaching about 90 feet, but it can do more than 250 feet - it's the highest gravity fed fountain in the world.

As you can see we got really lucky with the weather !

You done the Peak District proud, some great pictures, I must make the effort to visit it one day, its not that far away after all.

Loving the new viewing script too, I wondered how you did that, just so you know its works in IE8 and firefox, I tested it in both.

Have to agree with you Dusky; Autumn is a beautiful time of year, even for me, I’m colour blind and things don’t always look as they should, but you can clearly see from the lighting and colours that its Autumn.
