Old People Talk Bollocks"My Gran calls the remote control The Wisher" writes Kim, "and LA Law, Lah Law." Do you know any old people? Are they as inventive or creatively befuddled as this?

My mum's only 53... but still a bit odd in the head...She frequently gets our names wrong (I have 5 siblings), and introduces us as Son number 3, or child four...
The remote control is called a flick-a-dick...
She doesn't finish sentances half the time, she just trails off and goes quiet or gets distracted by something... Then you have to remind her to finish...
She forgets words of things, and just gives a blank look as if we know what she's talking about...
And various other things I forget right now... I have the same short-memory as her (unlike my grandad (or gandy, as my big sister couldn't say grandad), who can remember _everything_ )
