MaggieL , you seem to forget that Wales has a long history of fighting alongside the French against England . Look up Owain Lawgoch for example , otherwise known as Yvan de Galles to the French . And do not forget that the Welsh were Christians long before the English . And it was the Catholic version of Christianity until Henry started misbehaving .
Wales and France go back a long way . We feel especially close to the Bretons who speak a similar language to ours . Breton is closer to Welsh than is Irish or Gaelic for example . Best wishes to the bride and groom once again ! And thank you for the charming photographs . |

The bride's dress has a very nice pent embroidered (brocaded?) at the waist, I see. Looks like a great time was had by all, Maggie.

re: post 36, Wow Maggie, before I realized what I was looking at my first thought was "Hey, Maggie jr." Then I rememberd where I was.
Beautiful children. My best wishes for them.

It won't work with Googe for two reasons....
1. The UK, aka Airstrip One, is subject to the various Homeland Securty statutes and therefore a virtual 'gray' area... 2. The ever-present rain clouds over the UK make it a physical 'gray area'

kmz==Keyhole Markup Zipped, a set of placemarks/paths/ etc. These placemarks are linked to my Flickr. I only renamed it because VBulletin doesn't want to attach .kmz When the annotations and explanations are more complete I'll stick it on a server someplace.

Cool. I just looked at these placemarks. Looks like you saw some pretty interesting places. I didn't know you could save multiple placemarks under one kmz file. Neat. I'll need to play with this some. |

Furthermore, if you unzip the kmz to a kml, and put it on a webserver, you can do http://maps.google.com?q=http://myse...g/mykmlfil.kml And navigate the placemarks on Goggle Maps without having GE installed at all.
