Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Mother's Day! I spent mine with two of the most important ladies in my life, my Mum and hers - my Granny. They both mean an awful lot to me, but I wanted to talk about my Granny, because I don't talk about her much on her. Granny is 97, and she's pretty amazing. She lives alone, looks after herself (and everyone else) and polishes off 3 bottles of wine a week. We have fantastic conversations about literature and travelling - I mean, she's nearly 100. She's lived a fascinating life, and what's more, she still remembers all of it.

I love talking about people's grandparents - these people mean so much to us, and their generation has seen so much - just think how much the world has changed in the last hundred years!
