    Hi Minnie! The photos above are found at PicApp.com, the photography site I use for the majority of my images. You just need to copy and paste the code they provide.

    What was it like to see Prince William in person? He must be quite a tall bloke! :) I would love to see your website, so please feel free to leave your URL.

    Warm regards,
    Mandy
