          Hi Woo,

          Thank you :)

          And thank you for the information as well, I didn't know Hot Chocolate was that old.

          Because I can never get the colour to come out right this is a picture of the internettywebbythingy, this shows the true colour......

            Good morning @Anthony Rogers you are most welcome, yes it is very to get the true colour with any camera ,depending on what time it was taken lighting conditions,even on the web they are not true colours,,when you get time just search for any named Rose and you will find at least six different colours,and that makes it difficult to ID any Roses:smile:
