We Have solved the problem by connecting a laptop to a DVD recorder which has a RAM disc in it, so we can catch back whenever we want to, not to mention being able to pause and admire nature at its best. We have now managed to have our Sunday lunch! Many thanks for all your efforts for making this possible.MIchaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17247818474750591534noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-517644049991406941.post-68531593640054770672008-05-04T13:48:00.000+01:002008-05-04T13:48:00.000+01:00Perhaps Karen Anne can right-click the link to dis...Perhaps Karen Anne can right-click the link to display the properties of any hyperlink shown, or she could open the full page by clicking on the header of that particular blog entry.
