    It isn't a competition on content, just that the photo or post (doesn't need to be a photo) needs to reflect the time of year. Ideally something which isn't already on the forum.

    Take a stroll up onto the moors, that should bring some crisper weather.

    Doesn't have to have snow in it, perhaps winter berries, or heavy frost.

    Congrats 'Sitereh' the DVD is excellent. There was no way I was ever going to say so until after the draw, but I already have it and if I had won was going to devise a way of someone else having the benefit of the prize but it wasn't to be and good luck to your winning it.

    Hi Sitereh, glad you've received it, may be better to load the whole lot onto your hard drive, it also requires a late version of Direct-X so yours may need upgrading. I'm sure your friend will sort it out for you though.

    Default Dvd

    Hi, Rolf,
    Computer off to get fixed the screen is gone. So my friend says. I am not sure if the home PC will handle the DVD so will wait until I get the laptop back.
    I did like the painting and the photographs were very clear.


    From Sitereh
