You use photobucket etc and link the photos, just like you would an youtube video. You've got to try harder Merc, even the oldies off here can work most of it lol

I will be staying at the same scabby motorway services like I did last year and with the same friends, as I remember it lunch was at Combe which I missed as I was pre occupied fixing Mo's s40.

I'm sure the other members who stayed at the same scabby motorway services as I did will thanks you at some point..
