Cheers Tiwaz,

I'm still learning this techno stuff. Just figuring out best results for posting pics.
It's probably O.K. to leave them full size when uploading to the gallery, right?

I also should have stressed the necessity to USE A SEATBELT HARNESS FOR YOUR POOCH! Especially in city traffic.

Hobbit

If you are uploading pics to your gallery, Just use the original files as the upload program will resize them for you.

Cheers Warren,

I'll have a gallery happening before long, so that's good to know. Do PDF files upload to the forum board O.K.?

CONTINUATION.......

I found an old pic of my Beddie when it was fairly new. The pic was from around 1980. It shows my dear ol' Dad with van dog #1 as a pup. The Ford Thames 400E (pre'65), came as part of the business, when I bought out my former boss. The Thames had a 4 cylinder Consul short motor and 16" wheels. It was the main signshop van for a good while. I sold it in favor of a second CF SWB van....A 3rd or 4th hander (at a guess), with loud paint, mags, teardrop + rear door + sunroof bubble windows, halo rack, bad deck out, a 186 (3 spd) and road diff. This one HAD the cargo door and was signwritten up like a circus truck. (Never did that to the good one - It was my car). I sold this van after a couple of years because it started costing me. Sorry no pics.

My white Beddie has always been my daily drive, through 35 years and 3 engines. No longer white perhaps, but like me, turning grey and retired from work. I should name it Gandalf, eh? Yes, I'm called Hobbit because I'm stout.

STOUT? ??? Why did I say that?....More like short and stocky, I am. Haha. ;D

Sorry to rehash this old topic. I didn't want to start a new thread for these few pics, as they probably belong here.

'Introduce Yourself' always reminds me of the 'Faith No More' song, so I reworked the album cover
to suit. Here's a couple more photos of my van for the forum, while I'm still working on my gallery.

I don't mind showing my head on here, but didn't want to put it in the gallery 'cause I haven't figured out how to prevent pics from appearing in the image block yet.

Cheers, Jeff.
