Skull LeaderClive, my sister uses a site called Tinybeans.com to share photos and video. Not sure if you can share the photos to a website, but if you are looking for a way to share them with family it's worked pretty well.

BeancookerClive,
Try using
https://postimages.org/It’s pretty easy to upload. They even give you copy/paste hotlinks for forums. Upload the pics, (choose to resize to 1024 x 768) then when it shows the uploaded photos, the second choice from the bottom is “hit link for forums” paste that in the thread and they will appear.

ClivefromtheMedThanks guys, very glad to have brightened your day with our little tyke!
Today is the last day of the mandatory 14-day quarantine which we had to undergo since we returned from India. It was one helluva challenge to keep the imp entertained while keeping him indoors - from tomorrow we'll be spending lots of time out and about, rain or shine. Hopefully it will tire him out - his reserves of energy could power a small town!
he is settling in very well. Had a couple of days when he was challenging us on everything (apparently seeing whether we'd send him away), but now seems to have accepted that he's here to stay, whatever he does, so the challenging has diminished substantially.
He's understanding us very well and has started picking up quite a few words of English.
Exhausted, some what terrified, but thankful :-)
