Hi apricot...I dunno about that, it's a bit grim to be honest...it's about a burial site containing the remains of African slaves.

Yeah, can understand that being grim. In a way reminds me of those Mountain mummies, of sacrificed children, and in perfect preservation. You could see how terrified they had been too. I saved that program at the time, as well as watching it. In a way it was good to see them, as we got to know what had happened in the past to people, especially kids who had litte rights. Also felt very sad for them.

You'll do well in that essay, tell it how it was, as you can't do anything else but that.

One thing Angel, for all it's grimness, once you become interested in the Slaves, you'll find it easier to deal with the situation, ok. :

Just doing some testing here Angel, to see if the new piccy shows up....testing, testing....

Right, back to the drawing board. -sigh-

evening awl

Evening shep, my computer's cracking up, had to go out and come in again to see if the piccy had changed, and don't know why it hasn't as Fluffy came up with a great watery scene. Still hoping to get it in. You look well by the way.

hmmm...i can't help with the technical stuff i'm afraid.
if it's not dead straight forward i've had it.

Hi shep, we did go out yesterday late afternoon and it was freezing, but the sunset was beautiful. Going away for weekends is a better idea, and wish we had, as shopping is too wearing. My MIL went to Cornwall and she has 2 days of sun and rest was rain. I'm hoping to go tenting one day, as the tent and equipment we bought last year( I think) hasn't seen a camp site so far.

Is Kielder anywhere near the Dam? Are you in the States? Think I'll have to pad over to Tatty as my Profile isn't workiong either

yup it's kielder reservoir/dam. i've never been to the states.
saturday night was the first time in yeeaaars that i've camped anywhere but i loved it and wouldn't mind doing more of it this summer.
