If I'm not here, I'm doing photography. Or I'm asleep. Or in lockdown. One of those three, anyway.

The current titlebar/avatar setup is just normal.
Hint: An Irish guy
Spoiler
Hint: A well-known British figure (I just made it a bit harder to straight out guess, 'cos he's too recognisable otherwise)
Spoiler
Hint: WWI
Spoiler

Who are they?
Spoiler
1: Daniel O'Connell, fought for Catholic Emancipation (the right to vote) in Ireland in the first half of the 19th Century, and tried to repeal the Act of Union (Making Ireland independently governed)

2: Winston Churchill. I say no more.

3: Gavrilo Princip, the man who assassinated Archduke Ferdinand and caused the outbreak of WWI (and indirectly WWII). I wouldn't say he himself is interesting, but his act he carried certainly made history lessons fun (in a morbid kinda way).

This is the way the world ends. Not with a bang but a whimper.

I'd recognise Churchill anywhere.


I had to at least try and make it difficult.
