Old People Talk Bollocks
"My Gran calls the remote control The Wisher" writes Kim, "and LA Law, Lah Law." Do you know any old people? Are they as inventive or creatively befuddled as this?

Wartime driving!
My grandmother learnt to drive in the late 20s when you could just go to the post office and apply for a driving license. She then drove ambulances during WWII. About 15 years ago we bought her a brand new car with disk brakes but she still stubbornly turned off her car when she got to the top of a hill to save petrol and then coasted down the other side (obviously without brakes!). Nothing we said would make her stop. What is really funny is that at the time my father laughed at her and now, 15 years on, at the age of 66 he does the same thing!!! :o) I hope it's not hereditary?
