Awww... Just beautiful. Just adore that place.:D
Now for a history lesson. The tower you can see at the top is Milners Tower. That is Milners as in Milners safes. He was a great philanthopist and much liked by the people of Port Erin and Monas Isle. So the good folk decided to erect a monument to show their grattitude. Unfortunaelty they ran out of money before it could be completed. Milner got to hear of this and paid for the tower to be completed. It looks the way it does so as to look like a key....
 
Drew, click on your profile and then find customize profile, it is difficult to see but it is hiding just under the line "Drewstwos Registered User" and look to your right.

Under Settings & Options on the left click "Edit Options".

Scroll to the bottom and you will see "Miscellaneous Options" in the "Message Editor Interface" box there is s drop down menu set to Basic Editor. Drop down the menu and change it to Standard editor.

Go back to your post and try replying to your post. You will see a lot more editing items including a picture of a picture. Click on that and paste your photo link into the dialogue box, click ok and it will post your picture directly into your post.

Same with links. Click the chain and paste a link into the box. Click ok and it posts your link into your reply and highlights what will appear in the post. Simply over type the highlighted bit with a short snappy link like "Click Here".

Oh wow. anyone with a connection to the Isle is a friend of mine! I have often been called an Honoury Manxman because of my love for the place:)

I didn't even know about it until Drew took me to Port Erin and showed me the tower on the hill.

It was only after I had consulted my Mother and conducted some research I discovered I am directly related.

My grandfather's middle name was Milner and he and my father were safemakers.

It all added up and I am grateful to Drew for unwittingly introducing me to some of my family history.

It's such a lovely piccie that someone needs to put it up in the thread.

(IMG)"http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j296/drewstwos/SUNSET%20AT%20PE%20BAY/SUNSETPEBAY009652x4882.jpg"(/IMG) will work if you can't sort the edit options out easily. Use square brackets instead of round and no quotes. You got the URL (http... bit) right but had the wrong tags round it (the /IMG bit).
