I do right click then open image in new tab and it downloads it as a tif that I can click on and look at - and see a screenshot of the link, which is a disappointment after the link.

I didn't add this to the Guardian's page, but it's one of my teacher's groups (Sheila on viola).

Ohhh... honestly - only 1 minute in - that's just FUN FUN FUN and so well brought together in a "relatively simple mix" ( and no, NOT REALLY THAT SIMPLE, - I just mean a few numbers of players - and that has "its demands of its own" - well cool).... TYVM for that LOVE IT.... it works realy, really well, nice vid, yup - say TYVM to Sheila, the/her players and the organisers who brought it together from me - GOOD WORK - wish **I** had a teach !!! LOLOL

Ok - truth comes out - by the time I finished writing this (and stopping more and more often to listen in detail) it has played 3 times over... still love it !!!!!!! Yup sweet work without a doubt !!!

Thanks, Alf thumbs-up
