Sadly my last remaining grandparent died early last night..... :cry: ....so Id like to share a little story of her with you all......it's rather funny and it's how I will remember her.

When I lived in Nfld I would go to Rose Blanche get her and drive back to Corner Brook....she was very independant.....and she loved to drive so I would let her. One day...on our way back to CB(she was driving) a car full of young kids pulls out to pass us....for some reason, she wasnt ok with this so she fucking whomps 'er....and passes the car that is trying to pass us.....the car full of kids want around us so they speed up aswell...but Nan is determined that they are NOT getting around her....next thing you know were doing dam near 150 k's an hour.....the kids in the other car are right next to us, cheering my grandmother on by this point....and she is fucking determined that they're not going to pass her...160...170..finally the kids relent and fall in behind.....not bad for a 65 yr old woman who is driving a cavalier! :lol:

God bless you nan.....I never told you much but I loved you.

Ya gots a lve old 'uns like that. Makes ya realise that there goes a once and former youngster. I drink a toast to yer Nan. Sounds like she was cut from the same cloth as an Aunt of mine from Guernsey (home of Sir Isaac Brock). Gives a most positive spin on the word spinster.

Long may they reign.

Sorry for your loss, but damn, I wish I could've met your nan. She sounds like a real firecracker.

My Gran is a saucy minx......
