# Just before her 100th birthday, when my great-nan was asked
what she'd do with her telegram from the queen, she replied 'I'll wipe my arse with it'.

After she died aged nearly 101 & they cleaned out her flat, they never found the telegram....

She was great.
Woo to the pic!

# Assuming that she applied for a telegram in the first place.
Nice to beleive that the Queen has a massive diary showing everyone's birthdays.

# She'd never have applied for it
she was usually too drunk.

# It is very true
