First Aaaarghhh!! goes to Live Journal. I've only just realised that I haven't been getting any comment notifications. It was only because I did receive a couple this evening - for comments that were posted four or five days ago - that I cottoned on that something was amiss. So, big apologies for not responding to all your comments on my recent posts, folks. I suppose I haven't really got back into the swing of things since I got back off my hols, otherwise I should have known that the silence was a little bit deafening!

Second Aaaarghhh!! is just because Aaaarghhh!! I'm not on holiday anymore!! *sob*. Doesn't take long for the old bloody routine to take over, does it? At least we had a couple of free days after we got back, before we picked MIL up from the respite care home. Had a lovely day out in York with Izzy the day after we got home, and then the next day we had a walk through the park with her then took her to our local for lunch, and very nice it was too. Sadly, it's all been downhill from there... Nothing specific, just... bleh.

So, in an attempt to cheer myself up a bit, here are a few last random pics from my hols...

ETA: Is the LJ cut above the pics working for all of you? Cos it sure doesn't look like it's working for me. Bloody LJ!!

Yes, the cut is working fine. Also PIGGIES!!!! I used to have one that looked just like that, though she never had babies :(

Visiting the piggies is a 'must-do' part of the holiday when we're down there! I'm very fond of pigs, I'd love to keep some one day.

How annoying for LJ to not give you notifications about comments. :( I hate when that happens.

Those pictures are lovely, I'm glad the holiday went well for you. :)

The worse thing about not being notified is that people think you're ignoring them!

Pleased you liked the pics!

Ooh, yes, random pics are lovely! Yay for green and countryside and you! I like the path darkened by shade and leading enticingly away.

Yay, too, for days out with Izzy! You sound so happy and relaxed.

Except for the return to reality part. I'm sorry. I understand completely, of course. All I can say about that is: *Hugs*.

Thanks for the hugs!

Returning to reality is always tough, isn't it. :((

Oh, gorgeous holiday pictures... now I want to live there again... What a glorious tree tunnel, too...

Your lj cut is working fine - my notifications seem to be working, but for some reason lj won't post portrait-oriented pics unless I scale them down manually - waaah! On the other hand, they were brilliant about responding to my help support request, and even though they can't fix the issue immediately, they gave me a work-around until they can...

Posting all these holiday pics was not without its troubles either - not the same problem as you've been having though! I was having to upload pics twice before they appeared on my LJ. The other thing I noticed is that I made the pics smaller so that they didn't overwhelm my LJ, but it seems that you can't click through to make them bigger once you've done that.

It's very annoying...

I had problems with the comment notifications, too. *sigh*
ANYWAY... lovely pics! :D

It's annoying, isn't it. I always worry that people think you're ignoring them when you don't respond.

Pleased you liked the pics, anyway!

Ohh very nice pictures.

And yes I had comment notifications too. Only today I got the message from comments posted last friday :O

Thanks!

After I got the first couple from a few days back I suddenly got all the others I'd missed, all at once! Very annoying, isn't it!

It is. Beautiful pics, thank you.

I do wonder about the London gene pool. That really could be me in the bottom left pic.

After all the weird and wonderful coincidences I've encountered whilst doing my family history, nothing would surprise me!

Post-holiday blues, I'll get over it soon. I've got a lovely holiday to look back on, anyway!

Pigs! Ahem, sorry, but I'm awfully fond of spotty pigs.

Lovely pics, thank you, and sorry you've come back down with a bump. That's the sad bit of holidays, the bit when reality strikes *sigh*

Ooh yes, I love pigs too! I visited this lot about four or five times while we were there!

Yep, RL sucks, doesn't it. Just have to look forward to London in November now!

Glad your hols were so good, sorry about bleh. Lovely pics!! Everything is so green! Everything here is fried from the heat/drought.

They told us we were having a drought about four months ago and it hasn't stopped raining since!

Pleased you liked the pics!
