Alf's pic showing the cottage in a winter setting appealed to me so I "had a go", I might have another go to see if I can improve it, this subject really appeals to me. Eric

Eric that is wonderful I know Alf will love it you are so talented!
 
An excellent picture eric, makes me feel like turning the heater up a notch. Talented indeed. All the best formula t.
 
It's great Eric. Alf will love it. We are surrounded by snow and the temp is -10. Alf's Nursery Cottage fits right in to the mood here. Vancourites are in a panic..... snow should stay on local mountains. Heard it is -26 in Edmonton and they are used to that. Thanks for posting Eric.
 
yet another masterpiece eric...i do wish i had even half the talent you have got...

I found another photo of Nursery Cottage when it was two, for the Farm workers it was built in 1859 and each one had a small Kitchen 2 Bedrooms and a small Lounge. 40 years ago it was made in to one with a office to the right which is now my study.

Good evening, Alf,
I tried to view your wonderful home yesterday evening ...... but couldn't get in.
I tried your links in Posts #15 and #17 again a short time ago ..... to no avail. I've even experimented with both Internet Explorer and Firefox ...... unsuccessfully.
Perhaps Mike could explain his setup so that Jean, Dek and I can see what we feel we've missed! D.

Hello there, Mike, marvellous to see your little green light on again after the awful scare. I hope you're following everybody's advice and taking things easily. Great to see you back. How come you can see Alf's link and we can't? Is it a perk of being on Admin.? :rolleyes: Only joking. Get well soon, David
 
Thanks, Mike. I can't get it to work with good-old XP. I wonder if the problem lies there? Sincere best wishes, D.
 
IE8 on Windows 7 and get the warning notice.
