    If your phone is android, there's an easy way. Install Google Photos on your phone. That will automatically back up all your photos to your Google account. Then on your computer, log into Google with the same account as on your phone, and all your pics are just there.

    If you're an iPhone user, sorry I can't help, but surely there'd be an equivalent.

      For those of you that don't know me - here I am. :thumbsup:

      Me at Plymouth Hoe getting ready to play bowls against Sir Francis Drake. The match never occurred as he said he had to go off and do something important! I think he was just scared of losing. :)

      And here's the proper photo of me just a few years later :blue thumb:. They even had lava lamps in the 1590's :roflol: and watches :loll:

          Rather old photo, taken when I was working in South Africa 62 years ago. :old:
          I don't look quite so young now :heehee:

          [​IMG]

          Coming nearer to the present:-

          It was when I was acting posh a few years back. Well, a few years mean at the turn of the century :whistle: No, I don't play the piano and the PG Tips chimp could do a better job than I could.

              I dive for cover whenever a camera's in the vicinity, but here's a passport photo which was rejected because I was 'smiling' :roflol: Shame really, as I felt it avoided the usual convict look.... moi003.jpg

                      This is me last year [ I wish ]
                      A little bit about me:
                      I was a consultant in ICU for over 20 years, but also took time most years to work for MSF. I was "lucky" to work in many countries including: Iraq, Afghanistan and Syria. Unfortunately I came into contact with chemical weapons in Iraq, which led to deteriorating health, which was finally diagnosed fairly recently.
                      I retired early several years ago, partly from this illness, but also because of repeated bouts of depression.
                      I have a large garden with a natural pond, stream and area of mature woodland. I have lots of wildlife, which I love, but the Deer are starting to really annoy me.
                      Other interests are: fine dining, wine and most sport.
