Or know the year? I can spot my great grandad Geordie Graham of Haigh Road in front of the left bus.' Date and where the hoto was taken are not known

I agree with Andy's posting above but on my systems you only get the 'Download' option when your mouse hovers over the image within the Gallery albums. However within a comment in one of the Discussion topics where an image has been uploaded and also where a comment has been made on an album image entry and a new image has been uploaded into the comment I don't get the Download option when selecting those images by a left click with my mouse. My first click on the comments images gives me an enlarged image (50%) with the microscope tool (for enlarging the image to 100%). I then left click with mouse and I get a new screen with the image and I have to right click with the mouse to get a set of options, including 'Save as' that I have to select and save (download to my downloads folder) with either the system image name or a name of my choice.

@Maggie/915 - would the History Society be interested in this parish Magazine - Eileen, who gave the magazine to Keith to scan and post has been in touch with me and said she would like to pass the magazine on to the.

Thanks Jammy. You could start a petition to get the old footbridge back 🙂 ----------------------------------------------------------------- I wonder if a train service will just be a novelty for a couple of months for young people, and those approaching middle age (diplomatic to the end ), who have never travelled by train.
