I suppose I should start by way of offering a massive apology! So, Sorry ! There, that’s that out of my system. I don’t need to go into the ‘what,where,when,how and who?’ of why there has been such a massive delay, suffice it to say, there has, and now I’m back.
But I am not ‘back’ at a nice warm dining room table, with mug of steaming tea to hand. Far from it ! You see I have gone all technical again, and worked out how to post via my I-phone!
So this little baby will be up on line for only a few hours. I am going to have a little play and see whether I can work out things like pictures, videos and other such delights. Once I have done that, I will probably delete it, but be warned … The I -Dad is back, and a whole heap of stuff has got right up my schnozzle since we last met…. So
best pin your ears back !
So random picture number 1 .. Let’s see…. What’s that ??? .. You want to
see the bloody dog ???
Well that’s just ‘peachy’! …
Ok …

Floyd is fine. He’s actually in training! Seriously !! I’ll fill you in later.
Ok next trial … How about a video !
Can’t see this working .. But here goes.

Hmm .. Judging by the fact that my phone just spent 10 minutes compressing a video, and then promptly closing the app, I can assume that, as expected my attempts to show you the wonderful Grimethorpe Colliery Band performing at this years Band Contest, was perhaps a step too far! A work in progress there then !
Finally, a photo, not from my library, but one which I shall take now, (well in a second!) Dont ask me where it is, because I won’t tell you! You don’t need to know !

There … (I did try and reload the video, but it just did the cyber equivalent of sticking two fingers up at me and blowing a large raspberry!)
Right … That’s it ..
To those who are seasoned FD followers, sorry again, it’s great to be back. To those who have stumbled across this for the first time, bear with me! I promise, it’s normally better than this.
Laters peeps !
