Grandads
My great great grandad was what we'd now call a charlatan. Selling fake medicines around the country from his trusty horse and cart. I've no idea how many towns he was run out of or how much money he made.

Skipping down a couple of generations and my Grandad ran a sweet stall on the market.

He was affectionately referred to as 'Toffee Dick'.

Now his actual name was Alf so I have no idea where the nickname came from, or what actual trade he made the money from.

It seems to be hereditary though because I've been known to 'Toffee Dick' after a few too many beers.
