I couldn’t pick one favourite photo…..I have so many but I love this memory and it was such a sweet occasion…..Little M with Big E and Big C.

As some of you know, earlier this year I had a disaster when transferring photos from an external hard drive to my laptop. I knocked the hard drive on the floor and kapoot!! It was dead. It was shaken, examined, heads were scratched and Twitter was pleaded to…..to no avail, it seemed the only way the photos may possibly be recovered was to send away the hard drive, a very costly exercise with no guarantees that it would work. The hard drive contained years of photos including the ones of Little M’s birth. I only had the ones that I had put into a photo book.

Then, miracles of miracles happened……a couple of days ago I thought I had accidentally deleted a photo I wanted, so I went to the trash and…… found all the photos from the hard drive in there!! I’ve no idea how they got there…..in fact some were there at least three times. To say I am so happy is an understatement and it’s for times like the one depicted in the photos……the memory of that day was etched in my mind but I am thrilled to actually see it again.

These have been posted for The Gallery, an online gallery of photos all using the same prompt given by Tara at Sticky Fingers. This week’s prompt being ‘Favourite Photo’ .

  4. Beautiful memories these pictures show! Glad you found them! (Just another reminder to me – buy that external drive and back up, back up, back up. I’ve lost some of my own – never to be recovered – you’d think I’d have learned by now)

  8. Great photos but more importantly I am so chuffed you found the ones you lost. I’d be devastated if I lost all my photos. This post had made me do a long overdue back up. It’s taking a while. LOL!

    1. I must get photos copied onto discs and memory sticks and leave at different houses…like you I’d be devastated.
