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

apparently my grandad was captured in WW2 by the Italians in North Africa...However he didn't like to talk about it.Instead the most memorable story he ever told us was the time he went to the doctor to have his prostate checked.That was the extent of his rivetting dinner conversation.Only met him twice in my life despite the fact he only lived 50km away.The last time I met him he asked how school was going.I was 25.He also refused to watch TV because there were too many rainbows on it.Rainbows was his code word for blacks.He was a colonialist and didn't take the end of apartheid too well.

Or maybe he didn't like Zippy, George, Bungle and Jeff ?(, Mon 6 Jun 2011, 0:14, closed)
