#More on Flickr

Well I didn't learn from last night and press the off button when I should have. Or tonight.
I have finally worked out after far too long how to insert a photo from Flickr into the blog. Last night my post only had a red cross. I have just cheated by re-editing and changing the link. I was using the url from "share your photos" in flickr. This time I just right-clicked on the image to get the correct url to insert. And I also have a flickr profile but more on that later Photos on Flickr. The good news is that my life is not totally being drained away by the internet. I did a real librarian type thing tonight and went to an author event at Readings to hear Patrick Gale in conversation. How to describe his novels best? Written by someone with a deeply subtle way of getting inside his characters's hearts and minds. Cressida and I spoke to him afterwards -he was unassuming, compassionate and just really nice.
The bad news is that I haven't had any time to check new Ebay listings tonight.
