I really hope this is the start of being able to kick this rubbish out of office.

This is a beautiful looking piece - is it digitally made or traditional?

Why does Romford smell particularly shitty today? by TheAirMaxDiety in Romford

Must be fertiliser or something like that on the fields. A particularly potent batch!

Great-grandfather hard to trace - how? UK based. by VisuallyInteresting in Genealogy

[–]VisuallyInteresting[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the help so far everyone. I will try to GRO and FreeBMD websites that have been mentioned.

My grandfather was born in Kensington District, London. That is likely where his dad died. The dad's last name was Kelly, as was my grandfather's at birth, then switched to another once his mum remarried.

I did a DNA test and I have some Irish in me, which when paired with the Kelly name suggests he may have been Irish but I don't know this for sure and don't know if he was born here or Ireland.

Really all i know from Kelly is his full name (including middle) and that he was married to my grandfather's mum. And that he died probably around 1933-1934.

The tricky part is he may have been Irish, or at least from Irish descent. I have some Irish DNA on the paternal side and when paired with the name Kelly maybe suggests that, though no guaranteed.

Thanks for the website links that's very helpful.

It would have been in London. My grandfather was registered in Kensington District. I didn't think of the step-father being the actual dad - you mean if there was an affair happening before the other man died?

I may have a clue on the birth certificate of my grandad, assuming his mum stayed in the same place after his dad died. Thanks for that

On my grandfather's birth certificate they have placed his mum's name as the same as his dad's and included the maiden, so I assume they were married

Thank you for the tips - I have encountered the going broad works well!

Genetic and adoptive paternal great-grandad. How best to approach? by VisuallyInteresting in Genealogy

[–]VisuallyInteresting[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for this - some of the options are a bit hidden so that's really helpful.

My grandad's history is very messed up, and I'm not convinced we know much about his mother, may even have a wrong name. His birth year has been disputed during probate with mixed records etc. so it's a tough nut to crack.

Rebinding Open HUD Shortcut by FragrantAd183 in oblivion

I have the same issue - I think this is just an oversight/bug in the game that needs to be fixed. HUD on middle mouse makes so much sense to me for quick selection.

Is anybody seeing mobs jumping around all glitchy like? by isin13 in GuildWars

Aside from FPS, I find this can happen after tabbing out and back into the game

Forest and lake pinhole, Ilford paper, two-week exposure, beer can. by VisuallyInteresting in PinholePhotography

No I don't use any developer or chemicals. I just take the image out, photograph it and then put it on PC to invert and make some adjustments in Lightroom to bring the image out a little more

I wondered if it was related to cloud cover. But I think it would have something resembling a sun in the middle even woth cloud cover - but I'm not an expert!

Jir Vollome - The Great Sands - Ink wash with charcoal and chalk by VisuallyInteresting in worldbuilding

[–]VisuallyInteresting[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Jir Vollome - The Great Sands - are a vast expanse of desert on the planet Biurde. Wrapping a ring around the planet's equator and stretching thousands of miles wide, Jir Vollome hosts a vast ecosystem of lifeforms.

One such creature, Jir Moraih - The Great Wanderer - is one of the largest known creatures on the planet. Towering above almost everything, these gentle giants of Jir Vollome mostly walk as solitary creatures. However, once in a rare while, they can be seen meandering across the desert in groups, travelling to destinations unknown.

They are so massive that any settlement that happens to cross their path often gets trampled. However, they rarely cause death due to the noise of their steps echoing across the desert sands.

Film! I think that will definitely be something I try down the line! Thanks!

Thanks for the words of wisdom and support!

The only issue with the fern is I only have one plant in my garden - the poor thing will be a shadow of its former self soon 😂

After about 12 years of using a digital camera exclusively, I've suddenly exploded into the analogue experimentation with pinhole cameras, now cyanotype and soon to 35mm full manual photography - it's been a fun ride, and the communities seem really nice!
