Do you recognize this woman?
This is a bit unusual, but none the less.. read on if you’re from, or have any connection with, Ballymena.
Over on AskMetafilter (a site where people can ask for help with anything they like), someone posted the following question..
We dropped a photo on the floor, and the frame broke. Out fell two pictures: the one we knew about, and this one which was behind the original: The photos we knew about was of a relative. The second photo is of a woman unknown to us or our immediate relatives, but who has somewhat of a family resemblance.
We know the photo was taken in Ballymena by Young Photographers. How can we find out who it is?
So, it struck me that someone here might know. Well, you never know..You have to be a member to post on the other site – so if you have any ideas, leave them here. I’ll put a post on the other page directing the person to Slugger.
It’s yer woman whatsername, who used to work down in thingymajigs place with yer man.
What was his name again, Aloysius or Humphrey or something. Herself was always going on about horses and galoshes. Oddball.
No Harry, you’re thinking of oul’ wosserface, the one that lived down the back of thon street and worked for themmuns’ as had the place up there, you know, she married that oul’ fella that was like his da, remember?
Jeezus I’m beginning to sound like me ma!
I think its either Martin Mc Guinness undercover agent, code name bie bertha, or Peter Hain as Welsh secretary
The sad thing is we may never find out. We are all but fleeting moments of time and space.
I do enjoy the odd floating moment myself, Miss Fitz. A nice toke and a glass of stout works very nicely for me. As of course does the very sight and fragrance of Herself in all her finery.*
*Trying to get back in the good books after the fiasco with the jelly and the wooden spoon.
Oh, sorry – “Floating”. Lord, I’ve done it again. I’ll get me coat.
Iwas in space Ms Fitz, but Iam never gonna smoke that stuff again x
(miss fitz excepted) – could we keep it to helpful suggestions please?
why is Aaron interseted in this lady, does she owe him money or perhaps she gilted him in bygone days and he is out for revenge ,by stealing her zimmer frame
A mistress, a mother, a misremembered daughter, your stray son, or their fay father?
The brain will pay anything for a good story.
Miss Fitz The sad thing is we may never find out. We are all but fleeting moments of time and space.
Not any longer. We are all now virtual flies, caught on the web for posterity, there to spend our respective eternities being coiled and uncoiled, rolled out and in, until nothing remains unknown and unseen about us, just as the Good Book says (see “Dr” Ian about this). She will be eventually unmasked (assuming we are not looking at a Ballymena transvestite) and all her trivia will be revealed. Stay tuned.
Taigs
I assume you are talking about the mystery lady being ‘unmasked and her trivia being revealed’, and not my good self?
And I had never actually thought about that legacy for posterity that the net inevitably has become. Imagine, my grandchildren will be able to read my blog entries when I am long dead and gone……
Try the local W.I.
Miss Fitz: This is not the place to threaten your grandchildren. Consider the net as the ocnfluence of heaven, hell and earth. You have been born to everlasting life, virtually.
It’s Mummsie al Ballymazzi, the new leader of Al Qaeda in Iraq.
Miss Fitz, you may well outlive your blog entries …
Is she something to do with http://www.womenonthemove.org.uk/cgi-bin/members?cgi_req=101

Sobering thought and most of us are going to look rather bizarre when viewed 200 years from now.
Ms Fitz when your dead and gone , the term stake through the heart springs to mind here

I’ve often thought we should pulled the string on all our attachment when we unburden this earthly coil. The bad will be banned to the ethereal, and the good will have been their own reward.
