Re: How to post images in your threads
I gave up attempting any photos here. Making them smaller... whatever. Pointless. Never seems to work. I have plenty of pics on my FB page if anyone is ever bored. It's my name as it is here.

Re: Gros Michel
It's been a while.
The GMs I have left are still alive but looking awful. Hopefully they'll do better this spring and won't get smashed again.

Re: Hurricane Isaac vs Nanna's
