rupert123 Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 Good video Eddie but not my sort of place either I am afraid. All those tower blocks would drive me mad after about five minutes. Give me the alps in winter any time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robinhood Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 JudgeMental - 2012-06-16 12:27 PM what is bugging me is I cant get these photos under 109K can anyone help? .....whilst I use Adobe software to handle my pictures, if you're using vanilla Windows 7 the "Paint" program supplied (found in the "accessories" on the start menu) will resize Jpegs quite happily. Open the program, open your picture, choose the "resize" option from the "home" tab and a percentage or pixel size (whilst keeping the aspect ratio). Then save the resized photo as a Jpeg. You'll no doubt have to experiment a bit to find what percentage or pixel size drops it to the appropriate (under 100k) size, but once done, it should be roughly repeatable for other pictures.

Guest pelmetman Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 JamesFrance - 2012-06-16 8:39 AM The sites nearest to the sea front areTorreta and El Raco which both allow dogs and Villasol which doesn't. The pitches at Raco are all 10mtrs x 8mtrs, whereas the Torreta ones vary in size. Thanks James :D............hope to spend Jan/Feb out there next year........starting at La Manga or Marjal and finishing of at Benidorm ;-)...............unless we manage to sell up, then we'd stay in Spain until late spring B-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JudgeMental Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 Thanks Robin! I hope this does it, I guess with new camera pics must be a lot bigger.. I used to just email - select smallest - and that was it *-) I really dont understand what some of you expect from a site... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lennyhb Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 Liked the bike video Eddie just goes to prove loonies on electric bikes should be locked up. :D Where about are you going in India? We are spending November in India, nightmare trying to work out their trains lucky we have a couple of contacts in India who will sort it out for us. Hate the idea of having to book trains a month in advance we like to add lib on holiday pick & choose at the time where to go & how long to stay, once there don't want to have to resort to flying.

But no never before, only Goa a few years back.... We are doing the sunrise not sure if time for sunset as we have a busy tour schedule...Thing is wife has now taken redundancy and intending to work part time.... so we could have had more time and a more relaxed tour AND cheaper flights!DAMN! & BLAST! :D (Christmas prices horrendous, a few days either side makes a hell of a difference to flight prices) ..

Guest peter Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 Great video eddie, made me sick as a parrot that we're not still there. The point is it's not the size of pitch that matters, it's having a good time and being sociable with your neighbours. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
