She thought she was in HELL as the smoke and flames billowed round her..."
Are any of your relatives this loopy?

Lived to be 94 and spent the last twenty years of her stretch dispensing misery wherever she could. One remark she made about thirty years ago, though, has gone down in family history.
I was single then and mum and I went to visit grannie not long after Christmas. "What did the Jannie buy you for Christmas, then,", she asked. "A book" replied mum. "What do you want a book for" asked grannie. "You've got a book".
Then there was the time I visited at the same time as an old friend of hers. As the day wore on and the old friend made to leave, grannie said "the Jannie can drop you off on his way". She hadn't quite grasped that I was going three miles in one direction while the old friend was going seventy miles in another . . .
