    Well, there’s a new word for me! And a new concept. It sounds practical and looks quite attractive.

    Reminds me of the Beatles singing here comes the sun.

    You could tell how crisp and cold it must be by how brightly blue the sky is; lovely picture of the village. Stay warm!

    You’re getting awfully clever, Mrs. Blake! How do you get the writing on the photo? You’ll have some great tips to share when we meet. Take care.

      Open the picture in Paint, and re-size so that you can see all of it in the frame. Click on the text icon (A) then use your mouse to outline the area where you want the words to appear. Choose font and size – you need a large size, eg 22 point, and get typing.
      don’t move outside the box until you’re sure it’s correct, Then you can click elsewhere on the picture and your words are fixed. It’s usually better to fix ‘transparent background,’. and to choose a strongly contrasting colour for the words. All this is up in the bar at the top of the page. Go play!

    Unfamiliar with these, Viv; thanks. Nice to see bare ground. We have a foot or more of snow, temps in the teen below zero F. Oh, I could use some tamer weather.

      After I posted this, I got up, to find the garden covered with snow. It’s all gone now, however – from freezing to plus 6 Celsius in an hour. And the sun is shining enough to blind me!
