I’m currently doing a lot of these restoration jobs as I’m compiling a great deal of old family photos into a book for my nan and grandad from Christmas.
It’s going to be great but they’re very time consuming! This one is my great great great grandma Nancy Jackson in Bradford c.1900.
I’ve spent all day Today taking the photos for the knife magazine that I talked about the other day, I think they’ve come out quite nicely!
I’ve sent them off to Russia and hopefully I will be sent a copy of the magazine once it comes out so I’ll be able to see them in print.
I did six altogether, these are the four main ones:
I was in Spofforth yesterday looking for a grave (didn’t find it), the whole back of the graveyard is occupied by about a dozen sheep!
Newly re-vamped Old Photos of Garforth section is now done with all new content and better quality pics!
Made a couple of changes to the domain-on-DDNS tutorial page, the setup as described wasn’t working properly due to permissions on the no-ip config file and also the zone reload method. Should work now, I hope nobody had a go at it yet…
I’ve been off work today (first of three long weekends to use up my holiday before term ends) and I had told Mum I’d take her out for the day. We were going to go to Malham Tarn for a walk but it’s been pissing it down. All day. Again.So, I asked her where she wanted to go instead and after some deliberating over a cup of tea she went “Pudsey cemetary!”. Yup, time to get back on the family history trail!
Uploaded new ‘cherry’ style to replace the aging desert one! I wanted to do something more graphic-designy but, basically, I don’t know anything about graphic design. So, the central point is another photograph, or rather a silly triptych (which I did take).
Hrm, this is odd! I’ve been trying to work out on and off all week why a scheduled daily backup script won’t run on the new Ubuntu web server.
Added a large tutorial on managing a domain using DDNS to computing section.
Site is ready for a new design, if only I was better at graphic design…
