It's slightly weird. As has already been pointed out the piece images are giving 403 errors but if you access them directly in then address bar with https then they work fine (eg https://www.saund.co.uk/pgn4web-3.03/im ... /36/bk.png ). The first complaint on the https page is about the twitter widget (you can see it also doesn't load the "tweet" image over SSL) because it attempts to access it over http, causing a SEC7111 Mixed Content message. Would it be possible to temporarily disable the Twitter widget to see if the images then load?

All very curious.

The Twitter widget should have an SSL equivalent
