nonnaB 4,895 Posted May 30, 2022 Report Share Posted May 30, 2022 Hope you are joking CT. A few yrs ago someone commented on fotos I posted but ended up joking. Those fotos were posted after a few hours of being taken. Nothing to do with NS but thought they were an insight to village life in Italy. Please delete them if necessary. I don’t like to think that it’s me posting them. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cliff Ton 10,468 Posted May 30, 2022 Report Share Posted May 30, 2022 I was joking/bemused ! I wasn't sure if you were aware of it, and what you might think of it. I don't use Postimage myself, so don't know much about the inner workings and what it does. I understand why those strange images/adverts appeared, but other people may be baffled or surprised !

Beekay 5,153 Posted May 30, 2022 Report Share Posted May 30, 2022 Morning CT., just curious. So how do you post your images onto NS? What method instead of Postimage. Cheers, B. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cliff Ton 10,468 Posted May 30, 2022 Report Share Posted May 30, 2022 Since Photobucket upset everyone several years ago, I've used Imgur. https://imgur.com/ The Homepage looks crowded and messy, but you only need to Register/Log in at the top right corner and then ignore all the other rubbish. It doesn't come with embarrassing images either. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

CT Thank goodness for that. It was Chulla that played that joke on me. I knew him well so didn’t think at the time that he would play a joke like that on me. But I had to ask.

nonnaB 4,895 Posted May 30, 2022 Report Share Posted May 30, 2022 My daughter has just told me that at the wine festival she served 2500 dishes of gnocchi. No wonder she’s tired after 3 days preparing and 3 days serving from mid day to midnight. She prepared 250 kg of cheese. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Beekay 5,153 Posted May 31, 2022 Report Share Posted May 31, 2022 Just looked through that lot CT., it appears very repetitive. I'd guess that the photographer just held his camera up and kept a finger on the button and fired away. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cliff Ton 10,468 Posted May 31, 2022 Report Share Posted May 31, 2022 That's what I thought as well. The journalist who put it together could've narrowed it down to about a dozen good photos. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nonnaB 4,895 Posted May 31, 2022 Report Share Posted May 31, 2022 I'm not a football fan but well done Forest. I looked at all the photos and don't know if anyone noticed, but due to the occasion there weren't many fans smiling. The photos were far too many I think the photographer didn't want to miss a second. Getting halfway through I felt I'd seen them all when up popped The Council House. Lovely to see it again. But once again well done Forest. No doubt locals will be asking if I supported them. What can I say. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MelissaJKelly 2,124 Posted May 31, 2022 Report Share Posted May 31, 2022 I was in the Market Square yesterday and what an amazing day it was. My Dad was lucky enough to go and watch the match at Wembley. What an amazing time to be a Forest fan! 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

LizzieM 9,511 Posted May 31, 2022 Report Share Posted May 31, 2022 @MelissaJKellyit certainly is a wonderful, exciting time to be a Forest fan. I know a few people who made it to Wembley on Sunday, it would have been an unforgettable experience. Our neighbour and his 9 year old were there and there are still Forest scarves hanging from all their windows today. I watched yesterday’s celebrations on Notts TV but was listening to Radio Nottingham commentary. My husband is decrying my pleasure of the team’s promotion because he’s a life-long Fulham supporter! We’ll show ‘em hopefully. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nonnaB 4,895 Posted June 2, 2022 Report Share Posted June 2, 2022 Saw a short clip of the Queen on balcony with her family on tv today. She looked amazing. I hope theres a better recount tonight. The bit I saw got me a bit emotional, the reception the Queen gets is wonderful it shows she is well loved. I wish her a longer life with the best of health. I remember watching her coronation when I was 10. Cant remember though if it was on tv or not. Shes had such a traumatic life with her children and so sad too but as the British say " a stiff upper lip". Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beekay 5,153 Posted June 2, 2022 Report Share Posted June 2, 2022 If it were on TV Nonna, I would imagine not many folks would have a television back in 1953. Certainly nobody in our street had one. I do remember our school being taken to the Windsor cinema,(apt really) on Hartley Road, to see the Coronation, also "The Conquest of Everest" A lot happened that year ! I remember the girls received a lace handkerchief and us boys got a pen or propelling pencil. I swapped mine for a little brass sword within minutes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MargieH 7,600 Posted June 2, 2022 Report Share Posted June 2, 2022 We had a very small TV and we invited our neighbours round to watch the Coronation. I was a bit of a show-off and paraded round the room with my mum’s wedding veil on - it had a sort of tiara type headdress which I pretended was a crown! 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MRS B 522 Posted June 2, 2022 Report Share Posted June 2, 2022 I think my grandad who lived next door had a tv before we did, he also had an HMV record player which fascinated me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beekay 5,153 Posted June 4, 2022 Report Share Posted June 4, 2022 Morning all. Just had a phone call as we were about to walk out the door. It were from the eye clinic to say that they've had to cancel my wife's appointment, as they've just discovered she has a latex allergy. They said that she needs to be the first on the list so that there's no risk of contamination. She should have been at 10.00, now it's rescheduled for next Friday at 08.00, which means leaving at 06.45. Bugger, that's me lie in gone. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
