Heather:
 
 Thanks for that.   I obviously hadn't noticed this 'Reorder photo' feature before - Are you sure you haven't just sneaked it in there!!!!
 
 Anyway it is all clear now.   So having completed moving my Playa Pesquero and Playa Coco photos into my album, can you now change the link over in my Trip Reports on these two hotels from the photobucket.com link to 7 Days in Paradise.    I assume that I cannot do that!!
 
 Got to keep you on your toes you know, can't give you any spare time or else you'll be booking another selloff and be back in Cuba before you can say 'Millwoods'.

Any particular reason for the visit?  Would it be a sightseeing type of visit or just family and friends?
 
 I'm assuming with a name like Heather and the fact that you love Scotland, you must have some ties there.   Were you actually born there I ask myself?
 
 How little we all know about each other on the forum!!

I think I'm homesick and need to go back for a visit.
 
 My dad and my brother are still in Scotland.
 
 I lived in Scotland for 10 years from 1978 - 1988, I've only been back once since then and that was because my mom was dying.
 
 I was born in Toronto, but my kids were both born in Scotland.

Heather, I think that is such a pretty name.
 
 Where abouts in Scotland is your family?  I lived there for 5 years and my mum is from Larkhall in Lanarkshire.
 
 I love Scotland and take every chance I can to go back, it is such a beautiful place.
 
 My mum only has one wish and that is to go home one day.

I was named after the Bonnie Purple Heather that grows wild on the hills in Scotland.     :)
 
 I think my mom's family came from the Larkhall area years ago. Her maiden name was Mackay.
 
 My dad is from Lockerbie, but is now living in Alloa, which is where I lived too.

My family name is McGilvray, and alot of them work miners, I still have family there, all females called either Catherine (like my mum) (or versions of Kate, Cath) or Nancy (like me).
 
 I have planted my whole garden in purple heather and had all of my bouquets and button holes made entirely of heather and blue moon roses (grandfather planted a blue moon rose the day I was born - and I have planted a least one in every house I have lived in).

My mom's side of the family were coal miners too.
 
 My cousin married a McGilvary (Jimmie) I wonder if there's a connection ?  They live in Sauchie.
 
 Your flowers sound absolutely beautiful, and the blue moon rose, what a great idea to plant that when you were born.  I wish I'd thought of doing something like that.

I will phone my mum tommorrow and ask her if she has any Uncles called Jimmy, there must be some as I know that my Uncle is named Jimmy after his uncle though I think that his surname was Lowden, its common in our family for you to have the surname of the person you were named after as your middle name as well as there first name as your name, mine Nancy-Marie McGilvray *******.

 I'm really sorry to interrupt your trip down Memory Lane and PLEASE don't think I'm being rude, but I just wondered if you'd any news regarding the above 'quote'.
 
 I just looked at my Trip Reports and see that they are still linked to photobucket.com, so I'm still wondering if they can be amended to link them to the respective photo albums stored at 7 days or not.

We can certainly do that for you Mr B, but it'll have to wait until we get home from work.  Probably in another hour or so.
 
 Now where were we before we were so rudely interrupted.     :dan:

How spooky that this thread is now talking about Scotland.  I've just spent this afternoon planning where we could stay if we go away in our caravan in August.  Does anyone know the Garlieston, Killin and Shiel Bridge areas?  That was my planned route.  Thought we'd take a break from the sun and go touring. It'll take alot longer than going to Spain but just thought we'd try something different.  I will of course be taking my rum with me so our accommodation (2 berth caravan) will be all inclusive  :wi:    :wi:

I'd totally forgotten you were at work Heather.  By the way you were bashing out your posts on the computer I felt sure you had a day off!!!
 
 You can't be doing much bloody work though can you!!!
 
 That's fine about changing the links over, so long as it can be done, I'll leave it in your capable hands.
 
 BTW - this is strictly on topic!!
 
 This thread is in » Computer Weenie World » How do I do this? » Photos
 
 Heather you know that I NEVER go off topic - unlike some people who are rabbiting on about their ancestral home in Bonnie Scotland!!
