It's because in the link there is a "th_" which stands for thumbnail.If you remove that bit then you see the full size picture as you uploaded it to Photobucket.(656x640):)

I know that place very well, Carn Galva in Penwith Cornwall!, used to spend a hell of a lot of time there exploring and climbing.

Brings back some wonderful memories! :D:D

One not so wonderful memory being me walking that road next to the road sign late at night!, a car came towards me pretty fast so i jumped to the side to avoid being hit and jumped into a very deep drainage ditch about 7 foot deep full of nettles and water...[xx(][xx(]:I
 
Ooch [xx(] nearly as painful as collapsing into a hawthorn hedge:I

Thanks for all the imfo on photo transfer i will be posting up to date progress photos and any thing else i can find that might be of interest to the site! these photos were taken a few years back after spending many years GPO yellow decieded to paint it in the dodge beige, a sort of cream , this colour seems to show off the brilliant design shape some how but for next year it will be back to GPO yellow as i bought it from BT. with its fleet number, incidently i managed to find all its history during its GPO life and later its BT life wich i will post later .It came of the road because of the dredded rot in the n.side spring hanger wich i will replace next month , long live the Commer !
