Well, back to some family photos. So far, I am way back on my dads side to my great, great, great, great grandparents! (1700s). I havent got as far back with my mums side of the family but working on it! Looking at my great grandparents on my mums side its kinda scary!! I mean, I love my family but its a bit like the Adams family, you know! Then again, looking at my gran and grandpa on my dads side... they are quite elegant! Having said all of that, I just about ended myself laughing at some of my own photos as a kid. Around the age of five and six I think my mum was trying to turn me into Humpty Dumpty!! Id never been a slim child...... but really! With the Scottish wit Ive picked up after being here 33 years I can honestly say I looked like a Haggis with arms!! haha (...and no! Im not putting up any of those photos on here!) I believe we ought to be able to laugh at oursleves from time to time and my goodness, have I had a laugh over the past two or three days looking at some of these old photos. Then again Ive shed a tear too, but all in all this is just a great hobby to have!! Comments please on the back of a.....oh aye! You can comment here! ;) photos are as follows: 1) My grandpa Queripels Mum & Dad. Nicholas Queripel & Mary Richet. 2) My grandmas Mum & Dad. Abraham Ogier & Betsy Torode. 3) My grandparents on my dads side (my dad was a fair bit older than my mother so that followed on in the way my grandparents would have looked too):- John Queripel & Mary le Page.
