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

Peeky ChearoastMy grandad was one of the unfortunates who took place in the Dunkirk landings. I am sure you have all heard about how the UK sent just about every boat with an engine to pick our boys up. Well, my grandad was in the midst of clambering on to a fishing boat, climbing the ladder, when he felt a blinding pain, and realised he had been shot 4 times...
...with one bullet.
A bullet entered his right buttock at an angle that it exited near the bunghole, re-entered his left buttock and exited the other side.
Luckily, he never proudly showed his scars.
