Thanks, Daisy.
Changed my avatar to the 'real' Timmy before my hiatus, Nigel. More authentic, I thought, than the original one I had from the 90s TV series. That Timmy was far too small, not at all brown and nowhere near as fierce as the real Timmy could be.

I can see it Nigel. Have to wait for somebody else to reply to see what's happening.

Re: Famous Five characters
Weird, I can't see it at all! I wonder how you have it stored - is it a picture from your computer or does it come from an outside source - in other words, a URL?

Yes, I've just checked on our PC upstairs, and I still can't see it, so It isn't due to anything on our laptop. Curious and curiouser!

I've just checked on Chick's laptop and it's exactly the same as on my computer and yours, Nigel - there's no picture!

Re: Famous Five characters
I'm also mystified, Nigel and Eddie. I hope you can see my new brown Timmy avatar, copied from the Cave and stored in my pictures. Please let me know - thanks!

Whatever awaits behind closed doors,
Strange noises in the cellar or the sound of creaky floors,
We never let a mystery pass us by,
Just leave a clue and leave the rest to the Famous Five.
