Tonight it is back to working correctly for me! When I make a new post it does not show up.
Now the red dot only disappears from the thread, but not the forum!!

You may or may not know that the effigy is actually supposed to be of Guy Fawkes, the burning of which we celebrate on bonfire night, each 5th November. Its basically about a failed terrorist plot to blow up the Houses of Parliament in London. At least the occasion dates this particular photograph.

I've noticed that when I write a caption, to go with a photo, I type it as four lines... but somehow after the photo has been up, the caption description changes to a single line, without spaces where the hard return should be. Not a big issue of course, just something that the system automatically changes.
Edited to add:
On both my laptop and PC I have Windows 10, and use Firefox. I don't access this site through an IPhone, IPad or Tablet.

What a coincidence - I just watched the mini-series Gunpowder, which was all about Guy Fawkes and the plot. Starred Kit Harrington as Robert Catesby (Who was his ancestor!) Kit is also Jon Snow on Game Of Thrones. Funny, I nicked that photo off David Bedford’s Facebook post. He is from Liverpool (Dingle) and has written a couple Beatles books and was our tour guide on the bus from London to Liverpool. Great guy! He was the one who actually wrote “Who is Paul burning at the stake, Allen Klein?” I just thought effigy sounded better! Lol!

P.S. I was familiar prior to this about Guy Fawkes and November 5th. Doesn’t John sing about it in his song Remember? Yes:

Thanks, Nancy! I think Linda took these, not long after she moved in with him.
Aww, looks like he has soap in his eyes in the last one!
<---not sure if that's supposed to be shaving cream or soap, but will just say it's soap, lol (couldn't find a rubber duckie....)
Love the military uniform photo too. That was from Help, and he was also wearing that in the recently discovered home movie from the set of the film.

I love David Bedford's books on the Beatles, which along with Mark Lewisohn's books, I consider to be the best on the subject. Yes, John does mention the 5th of November (followed by an explosive sound) on Remember. And on a different subject, Paul mentions the Houses of Parliament on the Wings track, Juniors Farm.

Don't you think this was from that commercial he did? What was it for? I remember him leaving a card by a sleeping woman...maybe bose speakers?

Paul on an appaloosa. I wonder if it's Linda"s.

Yes, that is Linda’s horse. Yes, those pics with the RCA Victor dog were circa 2002. I don’t remember that commercial though.
