I seem to recall you had this problem with text/images before but solved it, but perhaps that was on the NZ blog and you haven't done the same thing on this one? <br /><br />... Anyway, gruesome story told in an entertaining way ... (although I have to confess I'm not sure I understand the point in the last paragraph, about taking the kids to the swimming pool)DawnTreaderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04533307672147117843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6784891745623390957.post-59091018094114222562014-11-16T15:15:58.762+00:002014-11-16T15:15:58.762+00:00The article ends with "so they" which is...The article ends with "so they" which is infuriating.
