    I know it's a busy time for everyone in the garden at the moment, but don't forget the photography competitions! :)

    Right now we're just over halfway through July and I really would like other members to join me in this months competition, winning by default is not much fun. :doh:

    Come on! Get those camera's clicking please!

          Yep, they want £2.99p a month for storing up to a total data of 20GB, any more and you pay more. Having said that I do use Photobucket as it is useful to me. They're not the only one to go that way, Adobe are going to charge over £14 a month for use of their Photoshop software, and won't be selling it on discs anymore. It's all about the money and not the Customers/Users:dunno:

            We live in a world of greed! How long before we have to pay for the air we breath? :gaah:

              Good afternoon Sheal it won't be long my friend,for they have an air tax,that's it hit the senior citizens again ;) as we are often short of breath so it should be cheaper for us:heehee: and when we go abroad do we still have to pay when we leave the UK:lunapic 130165696578242 5:

                Senior citizen......I'm not quite there yet Woo, but soon. My husband was granted free prescriptions two years ago having reached 60. Recently our government here has decided to take it away again until his official retirement at 65, I won't get it until I'm 66! Hopefully they won't start charging for our daily supply of air until after that time, then we can get it free on prescription! :roflol:

                  I'm thinking of learning this long time breath holding technique - you know, so that you can dive deeply to look for pearls and wrecks. I shouldn't have to pay so much then - if I can master it ;).

                        Woo, I sometimes feel like a senior citizen.......make that a lot of times! :heehee: No need to apologise, I hadn't even thought about it and I have broad shoulders so it's not an issue. ;)

                        Oh dear, I've just re-read my first line in reply, that doesn't sound good either! I'm implying that the more mature amongst us are past it, sorry! :) Shall we give this subject up before we dig ourselves even bigger holes? :heehee:
