I think your issue is Google Photos is not a place to host photos to hotlink elsewhere. It's mostly a backup and album-sharing site.

You should be uploading them to Imgur if you want to embed them.

Yeah, thats where they are now. It's just annoying because they mostly work!

My OH is really looking forward to the change in direction,

That said she has over 50 wedding dresses still in stock she needs to shift, if anyone is getting married soon there are decent discounts if she happens to have your size!
I just need to find someone marry!
Techs 'Other half' posts a lot on Facebook, there are some absolutely beautiful dresses available. Along with a hubby, I also need somewhere Poshe to wear them. I don't think Sainsburys quites cuts it.

I once walked out of the Blackwell's store in Oxford with a copy of Thatcher's The Downing Street Years in my pants.

I then gave it to someone as a gift.

Though that was an adventure in shoplifting.

Good luck with the new shop, saw it in passing on Monday. I have been able see all of the pictures except the 3 in the post enquiring about wiring, and I can see those if I click on the links - and I'm certainly not signed into Google.

Ripped out most of the wiring in the right hand side of the shop, as the wires in the chimney fed a socket I didn't want and were too short for trunking. Now looking loads better and I feel a bit safer knowing I can now reach everything if there is an issue.

Two sockets added, this one first:

Trunking all round, realied how uneven the skirting boards were! That one was a git to wire up due to the angle of the bends in the wire, plus there was a hole I needed to cover so the next one went higher up:

Weirdly I didn't have enough front bits to finish the job, I think someone was cleaning up after me a little bit too well!

Bad back has called off play today, the tramadol are starting to kick in though!

You can get circuit breakers that will plug straight into those fuse carrier sockets. You seem to have one at each end already.

Yeah, gonna invest in some more. Note the 20a on the end wasn't actually for the sockets, they were on a 30a. It may or may not have the correct fuse wire in.

Honestly I would go for a full replacement with a consumer unit if you can spare £350-odd on it. Much cleaner and safer
