Hmm. Looks like it's Firefox which does not like your images. This one displays fine via Opera but there's not even an icon for it via Firefox on this laptop. Yet if I copy the image location from the Opera view, the URL for that shows up fine via Firefox, too. So it must, at least in part, be down to the format of your messages in some way.

I'll copy the URL from Firefox next time and see if it makes a difference BUT i'm not sure that it will ?

This is that image via Firefox

Can't spell. There should be an 'r' in it.

Now it's very strange but they both display in Firefox without a problem, yet the way the URL was presented in your original post is not friendly with my Firefox installation. However, I intend to migrate over to either Opera or Vivaldi. I briefly tried the new Avast browser, but that loaded up a series of PUPs, so I dumped it (having put the PUPs down. )

Change of subject. On Breakfast this morning Petroc said, "Delius was reported to be a very good cook. But it might be a Delius myth."

I'll get me coat.

And also in many cases children they aren't used to having to interact with/tolerate all day everyday, with no way of ducking a share of parental duty.

In that case, lock-down will definitely be over by 12 August.

It seems to me that the two most commonly confused pairs of items in the British Isles are hemlock water dropwort and parsley, and Boris Johnson and lions.

So I made this handy venn to help people out. Feel free to share / steal / amend. My botanical knowledge is weak on the grand scheme of things so I'm sure we can improve on this. I'm open to suggestions!
