trying again with the charcuterie . . .

I see that Blogger has had numerous reports of problems with images uploading so it's not just me -- even Eric at ParisDailyPhoto is experiencing issues with photos, and he's been doing this for many years!
I also note that, having finally shut my netbook down properly the other day, start-up brought some updating of Picasa, another potential contributor.
So I'm going to try one more fix, and use GoogleChrome instead of IExplorer . . . fingers crossed, here's the Salade Lardaise (the hotel Wifi was between 1 and 11 mbps this morning, a speed not conducive to multi photos!)
