This is may third attempt at trying to upload the photos of my visit to see my daughters venue for her wedding next year is anyone else having problems I seem to get the first three photos then it seems to loop on the the next three and as Compton Acres is so beautiful I took quite a lot!

This has taken nearly three hours to upload will post some more another time, still got more of the Italian garden and the Japenese garden to go!

Hi Sticki yes truly beautiful have taken a lot more pics but they are taking so long to upload I will have to put them on in stages. Yes Laura is getting married there on August 31st next year so exciting they have a wonderful function room and another room where the wedding ceremony takes place and a large room in the basement where the band/disco is held all really lovely and very expensive but her hubby to be is paying for most of it bless him:)

sounds like your daughter is marrying a very generous and kind man!!!

how very lovely, i think its really important that they feel comfortable and really like the place where it is held, that was the case for both my sons and it works beautifully when it all comes together like that.

all the very best to all of you i hope you have a wonderful day.

btw i was uploading photos last night but i dont think it took any longer than usual?? but someone else was saying there was a problem with uploading.

It is quick for me to resize mine Nana, but I know that the site I use you cant get now.. the only reason I can still use it appears to be a glitch in the system. I'm not sure what Sticki uses but I know she has to resize almost everything as well..come on Sticki help out :))

We go to Poole each year and love Compton Acres, the view from the top across to Brownsea Island and the Purbeck hills is stunning on a sunny day, what a wonderful place for a wedding

sorry was working this morning!

i have to right click on every one of my pictures and choose the edit option then resize ~ you can do this in amount of pixels or percentage of size, anything you like i think. i take the number of pixels from around 3,400 to 999 that always works!!! does take a while though.
i think stevie knows how to re-size several at once but i dont know how ~ sorry.
