GrandparentsMy awesome grandad flew in Wellingtons in the war. Damn, those shortages were terrible. Tell us about brilliant-stroke-rubbish grandparents.

My nan is 102 years oldWhen she was in her late 80s or perhaps early 90s, we emigrated to Australia where she was already living.
My cousin, who was 3 at the time and also living there would pronounce 'F' as 'S'. So, Frogs became Srogs etc...
Driving back from the airport after having just arrived in Oz, we drove past the front where all the colours from a multitude of countries were being displayed on poles. My cousin shouts "Nanny, nanny! Look at those slags!"
The look on her face was priceless.
