I quoted your post and this kind of link won't work

try to copy paste the direct link by right clicking the image if you use firefox

The link you are posting goes directly to the image host. Have you reduced your picture size (640 x 400) before uploading and then copying and pasting into the thread?

Hi BR.  Well, that's sorted the image problem anyway.  Unfortunately, what we cook and how the camera portrays it sometimes are two different things  Unless my images look like what i think i photographed i don't post them.  Too often the pic does not do the finished dish justice    Nor do i want to post  a pic of a dish that looks great, but in reality tastes crap.  It's hard enough trying to get a dish right, then there's all these technical difficulties thrown in  Then again, nobody said it would be easy  :

Hi Guys,
the chap that was offering to give me help and advice  is now not so chatty! just hello sir how are you and that's it.

i think this happens a lot. rightly so the TA want to sell and see being friendly a big part of it. if you start asking questions that show you know more than you look i know that quite a lot clamp up.

from my experience it may be better to move onto a more receptive place - i'm also of the opinion there's a limit to what can be gained.

Round my way alot of the containers are only 2/3 full. Those look full & very oily. One place does dish out full containers & masses of rice. It is hard going to finish a portion by myself & i can put food away no problem.  Problem is, although decent enough, alot of their dishes taste the same so i don't go there very often. I don't think 300ml of base fills a container to the brim like that.

Regards
ELW
