Well... A Great Big "CONGRATULATIONS" to you Bryster. 8) 8) 8)

Congratulations! So this is your plan for world domination, populate the world with near copies of yourself! 1-2-4-8-16-32-64-128..... Why is there a picture of Drac's robot at the bottom of the crib? Careful, he's trying to imprint on your child's psyche. Mark my words, the darn thing will be like Elmo in five years.

Perfect texturing and great modeling on the facial features but the head has that "I just came down a straw" look to it. I think if you scale in the Y-axis a bit it might clean up nicely. :) Congratulations to you and your daughter my friend!!

Yeeehaa! well down that girl. 5 grandchildren, that's not a bad total, but you have still got 3 to go to catch up with me. At least yours are lucky, they take after grandma, like mine all do. Pam.

Forgot to ask...how come a South-East Londoner, translocated to Wales has a grandson with an Irish name? I know you said you had never heard the name before, but why is what I ask?

Erlik: I'm 49, yup I'm nearly 50, guilty as charged and you can tell 'em I said so....... Pakled: You must be plum-tuckered out after having 7 in one year! I love this Forum. I'll pass all these on to our Daughter and Lloyd, her hubby. Hell! I might even send her this thread! Many thanks, guys!

Sorry Chris...I know you said you once lived in SE London. Where did you translocate from in the first place. Kealan is Irish and it means slender, so he obviously won't turn into a chubby toddler!

Ye dogs Chris, you are a bit of a gypsy wanderer. Thought our family was bad enough. Mother's side came over from Ireland a couple of generations back, Father's side came down from Scotland about the same time. I was born a Londoner (SW London) was drug up in NW Kent, now live in Surrey, with close family in Coventry, Chatham and of course Ireland, as my sons both went back. BTW somewhere along the line I did marry a welshman. (well half Welsh, half Irish, but with a welsh name)

Just a curious aside for us colonists, is it Lewis-ham or Lewi-sham? And the phrase "as far west" is kinda funny, I live on California's coast, and people still call St. Louis "out west."
chohole posted Tue, 16 November 2004 at 10:58 AM
Its Looi-sham..very short "a". a sort of hybrid between sham and shum. Of course it does rather depend where you was drug up as to the exact pronunciation. Wales is about the farthest west you can go in UK without swimming!
