The other hiccup can be through unofficial adoption in families that was fairly common then.When doing your family history please be aware that quite a few babies were born' the wrong side of the blanket' ! Remember that song lyriic 'Your daddy ain't your daddy but your daddy don't know' !
It occurs to me Michael Potts' photography style is the way he sees SJ -- flattened, saturated, commodified, panoramic and altered. It's a curious trophy-taking and very cliched vision of the world designed to sell, not to apprehend the truth. One of my old boyfriends was a photojournalist, a really good one. He considered it not sporting to alter a photograph in any way. Cropping pissed him off.Ruthywiter and Potty are posting their Italian pics.

It may be a significant improvement on the novel that she wrote. I wonder if SJ will feature again?
Packaging is what catches the eye, maybe more than the real product.It occurs to me Michael Potts' photography style is the way he sees SJ -- flattened, saturated, commodified, panoramic and altered.

A bit veeeery slow, yes. But at least he doesn't WAFFLE on and on about blooms and WOW and stunning and weed foraging, and polishing coal scuttles, and look,here, I am buying antiques and there is another piece of tat for my Gardener's(?) cottage.Oh I agree - and I have been so patient with Selmar's vlogs because I know he is editing them in a van. Yet he loves the long take on the bloody obvious. BUT if I had any spare cash I would throw it at Selmar - he needs to get out of there. He has done work.
Srsly, how far up your ass does your head need to be to look at Tuscany and think romance novel?Ruthywiter and Potty are posting their Italian pics. Was this trip paid for by generous patrons or gifted travel vouchers???

Thank you for your post. I have always found it interesting that he has listed Lalande as a client with no mention of his part ownership. Was your work a gift or were you paid Michael Potts??? Another gem I came across awhile back, was his review of Lalande for google. Again, no mention of being a part owner. Way to go MORONS!!!!It occurs to me Michael Potts' photography style is the way he sees SJ -- flattened, saturated, commodified, panoramic and altered.

Do I look like Thor????I'm not sure that Fanny is claiming that she's a chaste or chased woman! Anyway, time for Thread 51 caption competition.View attachment 704741
More genius sleuthing, Keeks. Such good food for thought as well as evidence-based policing, the only kind that counts. Thank you.Thank you for your post.

What a fabulous place to stay!
I just posted a rant about a girl named Sadie… and then deleted it! Why? Well, I posted as I was watching the end of her vlog and then she started talking about Mo’s fundraiser for oxygen ect… I should have waited… how manipulative and low. Why the hell did I just watch a vlog about someone exaggerate the efforts of doing laundry and then beg, beg, beg (apologies- I mean, extend
their “income”.
So, SSB sees herself just like a Chinese accountant, sleeping where they work. NOT FUNNY Stephanie! She’s like a lost puppy there, in this amazing place that his full of incredible artifacts and touching history. What a terrible edit here… just a mere minute or so after Ivo Fornesa describes how his father-in-law, wife and family lived in a concentration camp for 7 years. Oh man… even with that, she interrupts him and places herself in the centre.
Waterford did have alliances with the Irish independence movement. It may be rewarding to research this history.We have successfully traced much of our family back through several generations but sadly drew a blank on a large chunk of my maternal grandfather's early life. He was born in Lisbon Falls, Maine as his parents had emigrated to the US from Waterford, Eire. The family later returned to the UK and Grandad fought in the first World War. He passed through the Menim Gate at Ypres and later was gassed at Langemark and taken to a casualty clearing station. (We were able to visit the Church where the clearing station was based.) Although he survived the war, he remained in poor health and was an invalid for some years. He died in middle age, just before my mum was married. Unfortunately due to a fire, we have been unable to trace any records of the family's time in the US. Sadly the one remaining relative in Pine Falls died many years before we began the quest. Someone living in Maine (through Ancestry.com ) kindly offered to see what they find out but were unsuccessful due to the records destroyed in the fire there.
I suppose the moral here is don't leave it to late to start your search and take the opportunity to question your older relatives while you have them.
The other hiccup can be through unofficial adoption in families that was fairly common then.
This Kiki is marvelous...oh yeahMore genius sleuthing, Keeks. Such good food for thought as well as evidence-based policing, the only kind that counts. Thank you.
K8ndle? is this code for something? did @MojoDublin give us an assignment?K8ndle
Acidic soil produces blue blooms, alkaline soil pink. You can try to change the colour, some people add iron nails, there are even products on the market, but basically it is only temporary as rain will wash any substance away. Hydrangeas are like the litmus paper of the plant world.
Wiki says he is a baronet. SJ likes to mix with her aristocratic "friends"!Ivo is an ex priest with houses in Barcelona and Bangkok as well as this huge chateau with museum quality collections.
Hydrangeas are really easy to grow from cuttings. I have taken cuttings from a lovely deep, deep blue hydrangea that my daughter has in her garden and it's flowered true to colour. My favourite is a gorgeous green- white variety that is perfect in flower arrangements. (Eat your heart out FRK. Disclaimer, I'm not a florist but did several courses at night school.). I'm currently propagating a lace cap hydrangea for my DiL that originally came from cuttings from my Great Grandmother's garden and has passed on through my Grandmother, my mum, my sister and I, then then to our children.K8ndle? is this code for something? did @MojoDublin give us an assignment?
Hydrangeas are an important decorative yard decor here (huge hydrangea festival circuit)-but I can’t grow them for anything-it’s my goal next year to get several more but I need COLOR-white ones are easy but I can’t get blue, pink, or purple-
