Great news

In between the img tags, you need to put the full url of where the image is hosted. If you haven't hosted it yet, stick it on Photobucket

It's in the post dude

take out the spaces, replace (at) with @ and dot with .

Only written like that to stop spam bots picking it up

Glad to hear all is well. I hope your kids get loads of fun with their bikes. My two are 24 and 21 and STILL keen riders.

Invest in some locks though, eh?
