Apparently dolphins sleep quite a lot ... but only half of their brain at a time, so they actually stay active when they're asleep.  ;)

I've known some people like that...  ;D
and others that are apparently able to turn their entire brains off, whilst living their version of a 'normal' life...  :banghead:

I didn't know we'd met  ;)

Having taken advice from fellow Whiffers I intend to upload photos and rewrite almost all of my posts or topics.
By trial and error I'm slowly learning how to crop my photos so they don't keep coming up as an error of being too big for the data files.
I haven't been able to do this on the flikr app yet so most of the early stages of the builds are missing. I'll keep trying to find away to do that.

I download my camera shots onto my laptop and upload directly from there... saves having to use a pay site, or one that will go that way in time.
I still have to insert them into the body of the post, but it's pretty easy.
And it means I keep hold of them...

Just an option.

That's what I tend to do nowadays, although I'm happy to pay Photobucket the £6.30 or so a month as a backup for my few thousand photos  (a lot of holiday ones) and do sometimes post from there, it's easy enough as long as I can remember how to do it  :angel:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

I'm just using my tablet to take the photos and upload them from there  :thumbsup:

Back in the 1930s some landlords used to tie pieces of rope in rows in their rooms so the people who couldn't afford to rent a room slept standing up leaning on the rope all over the Eastend of London.
