:buffo9:
Okay! I surrender. You know I take your advice. I admit, I still haven't found out how to post pics. Tried pasting them. But maybe they were to big.
Got some advice...
.... PLEASE!!
@ Georg jun
Qustion, do you have a program to reduce the size ?
If not send me the pics i reduce them for you
How to get the pic in ???
In your post it says additional Options ( Bottem left)
In Attach you search in the PC which file to upload
If you have more pics you press (more attachments) max 4 files can be uploaded
When all pics are selected from your PC press Post
Ideal is about 500 to 700 Pixel width and less then 100 kb per/pic
Thanks oldman. It was the size that made a problem.
@ Georg jun
Another way how to post pics
Upload Pic to a site called Photobucket
Get code there and enter code here
Like this sample Pic

whoa that wild, moving pictures..........
Awesome stuff Georgswa, you just taught me something.... daman
I just email the scannend pictures back to me .. a pop up asks if you want to reduce the size and it takes it from MB to KB sized pictures ... let available technology do the job for me ...

Could that be 50 G ( # 5 Plant south of 4 plt)
Georg I don't think so 50G runes has a reservoir towards the bottom right of Photo
If you look at this photo the tipping bin is closer to the plant
Alfred
Hi Alfred
Thanks for those 3 Plt Pics
That electrical WS is new dont know it, next to the CCP Bldg ?
What surprised me is the sand on SWI
The air pic 3 plt must be older, i dont see all the new dumps that are shown in google earth
Thanks again
Georg
Georg you spot on that was my testing, trying to take photo of a photo not to bad I think
If you look at tha coast line it seems to have moved back quite a bit there are some old see walls that seem to be about 200m from the current coast line and I though global warming will do the opposite? here's a photo of the gully to the south of the SWI
Alfred
@ Alfred
Sanding up was a problem right from the beginning
Some Photo's of 4 plt

Spoken to a few people looks like 100G
Could that be 50 G ( # 5 Plant south of 4 plt)
Anybody remember the tank farm beacon, when the tanker used to fill up our feul they used them to find the pipe to pump our fuel.
Alfred
Hi Afrd.
Your doing a fantastic job. Seems almost like your living to feed us with infos and photos.
Keep it going, hey!

Jack Mc Bride on the left
Sorry Alfred thats nor in my time
Two cranes in tandem to move 50ton Transformer, one of the main supply transformers to our little Town, Mine. It was decided that the two transformers where to close to each other if one where to rupture it would distroy the other so they moved it further apart and build a wall between them "40MVA" 66kV to 30kV, safely in its new location
