Please see the latest announcement about the image problem. Should be sorted out now. I believe it's shoot999's turn?

I did Walter Burke's grave in Wouldham Churchyard as a "Guess The Place" on the old forum. :)

Same issue here.  See below and on the Chatham Intra Synagogue thread.  Tried later with the smaller picture and it failed again.
@KeithG - sorry, I was just looking at "new bridge", "naval" and "owner did something", missed the motorways.  I know well where the M2 ends: I've spent many an hour there looking at the other vehicles in the jam!  >:(

I had the same problem last night trying to make a post with an attachment. Ended up using a link to an external image site.

Sorry Martin R.....Sheppey and Sheerness is North of the M2 where the M2 goes North to the West of it is the Medway Valley.


Yes, shoot999 you have it .....nice bit of searching :D


The house in the 1930`s seems to be the only picture around, same man same dog it is everywhere concerned with this piece of history.
Walter Burke, as you say, was a purser on HMS Victory who caught Nelson as he fell wounded at the Battle Of Trafalgar. Nelson died in his arms.


Over to you.......
