On my computer a new page (browser tab) opens to show the larger photo, this is a function of the site he used to link it so it's possible your laptop and/or tablet blocks this from happening.

Thanks Bish. I think you've told a great story and much respect for the work you've done and documenting it so well 👍 it has certainly inspired me 😃

As you said earlier in the thread it is all the little bits that take time and that is what makes a project special and individual and educates us all on the mountain of work you have done...

I hope to have the opportunity to see it in person later in the year.

Cheers. Dave
