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

The boredom of retirementA family friend. Alas, not my grandmother, but I wish she was.
Tied to an oxygen bottle, she'd be confined to the house and get bored, so she's take her boredom out on any stupid door knockers who chanced to knock on her door.
When the God Botherers came, she guilted them into mowing her lawn for a couple of months, "It's all well for you to swan about telling people how good life is, I'm on an oxygen bottle and my husband has a heart condition...". Some weeks later, "So you want to hear about God?". "No. You can fuck off now." Yes, she swore like a sailor. Liked a beer and a smoke too.
