A friend of mine has put this on Facebook and I thought that it would make a few of you smile.

It might if we could see it,but seems the link has expired.
Could always try a bit copy/paste if it's only a bit of text.

I can see it and it made me smile

Got it now, quite good.
Similar one has been doing the rounds for a while.

Nope, it's gone again;

This content is currently unavailable
The page you requested cannot be displayed at the moment. It may be temporarily unavailable, the link you clicked on may have expired, or you may not have permission to view this page.

I did a link to the item which is on Facebook so wonder if that is why it keeps on coming and going. It will not copy and paste.

Rosemary

Thanks for that. Can you please tell me how you did it so that I can learn.

Rosemary

go to the picture & click on the picture itself

right click & select 'copy image location'


then back in the message box, select
& paste in the url

Weird, mine does not come up with either of those. What I did was Copiar Acceso Directo and then Pegar but this seems to be unstable when in the thread.

Rosemary

it's weird, because my laptop is in Spanish & yet I'm getting English options on some things


what you want is something like copiar ubicación de la imagen, after you have actually clicked on the image - when you click on the image it might get a bit bigger & sort of 'jump' to the front of the screen...........


then you right click etc. .....


are you clicking the little image box I showed you & then pasting the link into the window which pops up?

Must be down to different operating systems because I do not have the same list as you and do not get the envelope image just words (in Spanish).

Normally I do what I did and it is OK, stable but not this time. I do wonder whether it is because I copied it within FB.

Rosemary

the image is above the message box on BE - unless you are just using the quick reply box?


I copied it from FB too - maybe it doesn't work your way if the person viewing doesn't have FB? - getting too techie for me then...

It was not quick reply because it was a new thread. I just tried a few different things but none of them worked for me not even the envelope button above the message box. Stranger and stranger.

Never mind people can see it anyway now that you have put it on.

As an aside I am an avid reader and now find that sometimes I have to read some words several times because they appear to be alien to me then I realise that I am pronouncing them in my head the Spanish way (even though it does not exist in Spanish) and that is why I am confused. Before you say it, I do know that it takes very little to confuse me nowadays, I blame OH completely of course.

Rosemary

of course it's his fault - everything is my OH's fault too


I do that sometimes - read an English word phonetically .........as do the kids
