I don,t know for sure, this is the first time I have downloaded pictures ( I followed the instructions posted by Chris some time ago ).

I have gone back into my post and clicked on the link & it works fine, could it have something to do with the internet browser that I use? (google chrome ) :(

You can lead a horse to water but, a pencil must be lead.

I know less than you do about these things, thats why I tend not to use them. I just stick to things I know.

Perhaps you are trying to link us to part of the site that is only available to yourself and is protected by your password. Thats a pure guess on my part.

I suppose they haven't got round to Brigadoon yet, Also I suppose its a bit difficult with it only appearing every 100 years.

I think you might have to post a new link, because I am still getting the same result. Or shall we wait until someone else tries the link as it might be a problem with my computer.

Surely that not an operational phone box, not with the old phone and the A & B buttons.

If its for display only, in Birmingham it would have been blitzed by now. Come to think of it, if it were operational it still would have been blitzed.

Hi Phil

apparently it was operational right up to the day the M.O.D. took over the area &, apart from the G.P.O. converting it to decimal in the 70,s,
( jobsworths ) it has never been used since. I don,t know if you can see them but there are some really big cobwebs hanging around, yuk.
