We’re now up in the Lakes after a couple of days down in Birmingham. The cottage we’ve got is in the arse end of nowhere and is a beautiful little stone building. Was a bit cold when we first got there but now the heating is on it’s a mini sauna! Weather isn’t too great but just looking forward to a few days relaxing in our retreat.
Just found a handy way of embedding photos from Flickr into a website. On the Glendown Farm site I’m adding a photographs page, and rather than hosting the images on the Glendown Farm server I’ve added them to Flickr. By sticking in an iframe and pointing to a slideshow created in Flickr all the photos show with in the Glendown Farm site without having to redirect to the Flickr site.

What I hope to do is create different slideshows for inside the self catering accommodation, outside The Stable and general farm and Isle of Man photographs. The only downside is there is a black background to the slideshows which at present doesn’t seem to be customisable but there are a number of comments in the Flickr forums about this so something may change.
