[quote=""annis""]Hi Ken - it took me a little while to work out as well, because I couldn't see a side-bar to drag up and down. What you need to do is use your mouse to drag on the picture itself. That way you can move it up and down or backwards and forwards as you wish.[/quote]

Thanks annis.....What a great site....Visual History at it's best.....Priceless......

June 1st 1967 The Beatles released the "Sgt. Pepper Lonely Hearts Club Band" Album..When I first heard their "Rubber Soul" I took notice....Then along came Sgt Pepper and Rock and Roll was never the same again.....Only my opinion.....Where were you and what were you doing?....."If you remember the 60's you weren't there" is misnomer....I have my Brown Out Moments" but I remember.....
