Apologies for no clicks and comments for a while, I have had to get a new pc, and am now having to learn how to operate both Windows 7 (previously Windows XP) and, worst of all, Photoshop Elements 7 (previously used Elements 4). It's going to take me an age to get to grips with the new technology, so please forgive my absence from clicking/commenting for a few more days.
These are two appalling pics, horribly noisy, but I had to upload something so that I could let all you kind people know my situation and why I had not been around for a while. Please be patient with me, I'm no good at learning new programmes, and this Elements 7 is proving beyond me just now!

Love these pics Carol, noisy or not - I always have time for the Clangers! Good luck with all the "newness" and I hope you conquer it soon!

Oh I do sympathise. It's lovely to get new equipment but I have to say the thought of having to do exactly the same as you is a bit worrying which is why I'm putting off doing it. Let us know how you get on. It might not be as daunting as you think.

Anyway, always lovely to see these little fellas.

Life would have been a whole lot easier if you had bought an Apple Mac!

I knew this was one of yours from the thumbnail. Come on, confess, you are training a troop of these lovely creatures, aren't you?

I'm sticking with XP as my son is finding windows 7 not to his taste. I also use elements 3 and although I have bought P.S. elements 8 gave up in flustration so understand where you are coming from! Nice to have you around again. Sylvia

Don't sell this upload short Carol, a little noisy but still well worth an upload.
If it any consolation, I had a new PC with Windows 7 in October and soon got used to it so good luck.

Keep plugging away with the new programmes and OS you will get to grips with it in no time ! Shows the scale here so well of the "clangers" Colin

Strange creature but nicely captured.
