Thanks.

Blimey, the phrase "spoiled for choice" immediately springs to mind. EXCELLENT work.
I know an elderly lady who will be so pleased to view a photograph of her great-grandfather.
MANY thanks.

Hi joyful
In the 1861 Census he is described as "Labourer". He must be dressed in his Sunday BEST!
And tks you too Mudge for excellent colour; love the jacket colour.

Hi Q98 :)
Bit restricted - got a paw problem (scalded index finger) but have managed a bit of colour to my earlier restore.
If he was Irish, I see him in his best Sunday black and with those very dark blue eyes that my Irish cousins have :D

I'm left handed - verging on ambidextrous and am a touch typist (sister taught me when I was 15 which I'm eternaly grateful for) but I use my mouse in my right hand and my graphics pen in my left and I can't use my pen hand properly, which I use to do the detailed work ::)
Never mind - he's a cracking chap :)

Hi Gadget,
I am a bit ambidextrous too, I had to learn when I had the same op on the other hand, but it doesn't make it easy till you have cracked it does it! Yes it is a lovely picture but where are the smiling Irish eyes?
Did touch typing at night school and hated it! but it stands you in good stead always
How did you scald your hand?
