Ok, so I am a total dumbo, sigh

I thought it would be a good idea to actually post some lovely old French bits and pieces on the Vintageland blog, with a paypal button, to make it nice and easy. Hmmm. Eventually I found out how to post a button, and it works. It takes you to the proper Paypal page. And then I thought, hang on a minute, what happens after somebody buys something by clicking on the paypal button and paying for it? Will the button disappear from my blog? And if it doesn't disappear, will anybody else, who tries to buy the same (already sold ) item get blocked from doing so by Paypal? Errm, the answer appears to be no, and no again. My son and I tested it. That really bugged me. There has got to be a way to make sure that the purchase can only be made by one person. Does anybody have experience with this and can explain to me in simple terms what I need to do??? I'll be eternally grateful.

Now that I have depressed myself totally by failing to solve this, I really need something to cheer myself up. So back to the France photos we go. There are bound to be more I can show you.

Ah yes, this photo of Poppy had me in stitches, until you make it nice and big, it actually looks to me as if she has been blowing a pink chewing gum bubble, which has burst over her muzzle. I love this pic -


And talking of creatures, these interesting little creatures started running over the stonework as soon as the sun came out and warmed the stones -

The little lizard is right above the barn door there. Oh, talking of barn doors, lolol, I love our barn door, its soooooo old, and the wood is sooooo wonderfully gnarled and silvered and just gorgeous, and all the old ironware on it, but look for yourselves -


There, I feel much better now, having looked at France piccies. But I would still really appreciate any help you can give me with the above query.
