Thanks all for explanation, I'm at an age when it difficult to grasp new technologies but I have an idea now what it is. I will stick to my Acer Predator tower PC Windows 10 which I can understand (mostly). I have not even got a mobile phone, I slung that in March when I packed up motoring after...

I know this is a naïve question but what exactly is an iPad ? Most of the posts on this thread are beyond my understanding but I would like to know what an iPad is. Eric

They have since use the painting to make a 1000 piece jigsaw surrounded by some of the peaky blinder villains who spent time in there, pic attached. Eric

Ray, I always credit the owner of the pics (where known) and will certainly will do so in your case. I lived near there donkeys years ago, Queens Rd and Vicarage Rd. If I do a painting it will be donated to the raffle at our next meet assuming we ever have one. Thanks Eric

Ray, these are the sort of scenes I like to paint, would you mind if I painted one or two of them in the future ? Eric

I think it was the Goddess Minerva, there is a copy of the bust in the roman baths in Bath

Whilst sorting out my studio this turned up, it is a painting of a Michel Angelo bust I completed for an A level art exam at Brooklyn college in 1986, I was 56 at the time, certainly the oldest student in the class, I love the roman nose ! I got an A plus. Eric

The amount of bad language on TV disgusts me, maybe I am old fashioned but I watch very little TV now and this is one of the reasons. I tried watching Mrs Browns Boys and switched off after a few minutes because of the language, is it really necessary ? The old comedy shows where funny without...

Many years ago I knew some one who lived in a Prevab who said how difficult it was to keep them warm in the winter, apart from that they liked them. Eric

My son in law Alan Payne worked there for 42 years straight from school, he retired from there about 8 years ago, do not know what department he was in. Eric

David, I have never flown on a B747 either but have flown on a B707 (post#661) more than once with my late wife to Malta from Birmingham in the early 80's with Air Malta. Eric

I remember around 70's/80's they had an Art Centre there, I took 2 courses, Art History and Watercolour Basics, I bet that is long since gone. Eric

I have BT fibre optic giving 48 mbps but I never download films etc... so I suppose speed is irrelevant. Not being PC wise I don,t know what the advantage of speed is ? Eric

Pic 2 c/o Witton Road/Albert looks like the old Art School I went to in 1947/8, could be wrong, it was over 70 years ago. Eric

Its now moved to new premises in Catherine de Barnes, all dogs have heated kennels, there is an adjacent field were they are occasionally exercised. I collected my dog Elsa, a 7 yo cross Staff from there last March, very impressed with the Kennels. Only problem is getting there if you don't...

Pedrocut, I thought I had seen all Georges work but some of them are new to me, thanks. Eric

edcartemo, as I said in a previous post he was a friend and colleague of mine during my 19 years in the BWS, George was also an elected member of other societies and a professional artist. He gave me one of is calendars many years ago, I have searched my studio top to bottom and cannot find it...

jukebox, no, I'm afraid you previous suggestion did not work. I suspect Works 9 (which is a bit ancient) is not compatible with Windows 10, which is a shame as it a simple tool for people who are not PC wise like me. I will just use 'printscreen', I can still print pics which is more important...

Jukebox, I have reinstalled my printer and my Works 9 software without success, I will now try your suggestion although I have bypassed the problem using 'PrintScreen' Eric

This is a painting from our holiday in Ireland, my daughter, aged about 15 paddling in the evening . She is now aged 64 ! Eric
