That's good then, similar with me, heart condition so lots of shielding and extreme care when going into town. Had all the jabs, so also hopeful they work and things improve and I can soon get back out proper.

Ray Bird(29th May 2020)

Thank you POE. Clouds can really stir the imagination, my first thoughts on this one was, a man with two eyes, a nose, a tuft of hair sticking out the back, some handlebar whiskers, and a funny round hat !!

Thank you poe - I hope you don't mind me bringing this to your attention because no doubt it's just an oversight, but while I noted that you approved the batch of pics I put in last week, a number I submitted some 6-7 weeks ago are still awaiting your attention - thank you.
