Jo, I think it is bang out of order... and Tom must know why you keep changing the password.

I would be tempted to change the password(s) and then keep them secret till the boys, esp Tom, got the message. OK you might have to insert the password, unseen, every time they want to watch, but eventually the problem will sink in.

Jose Felipe has just been up with a huge container of water - and an old bath :lol: :lol:

Looks like we're having the sheep for a while - good job I took some photos of the wild flowers yesterday :D

It's a funny sight in the field.

In the distance, when the sheep have their heads down, munching, all you can see are the tops of their backs as they walk around. Looks rather surreal :lol:

They're making progress eating all the grasses and flowers :Hi:

I'm a member of a Facebook group about my old village. You know the sort of thing, Happyville Past and Present etc.
There are two people who post prolifically on there. One puts post after post of wildlife on there. Birds, butterflies, pictures of sunsets and now he's started with pictures of people's dogs.
The other guy just gets random bits of stuff from the internet. Pictures of old singers, miners, old jokes. Not specific to the village at all. He posts exactly the same stuff on at least two other village sites.
The thing is - neither of them live in my old village. In fact they have never lived there, ever.
So why do they post on there? Especially, why do they post so much on there?
To me, it's nuts.
The internet seems to give a platform for people who are obsessed with things, and they are going to shar their obsessions with others whether they like it or not! :lol:
It is barmy though. I wouldn't join a group called Nutsville Nostalgia if I'd never lived there, I mean why would you?

It is a bit. Unless you're underwater, then it's understandable! :D
