I became a great aunt when I was still in my twenties because I was an aunt when I was 8 years old. I am now a great, great aunt!


I have three great nephews (aged 21, 5 and 2) and a great neice (aged 15) and a great, great nephew aged 10 months!

Old but spicey!

My grandparents on my mums side are both still alive and doing well. I met my nans mum but she died when I was about 4.


On my dads side I knew my grandma but she also died when I was very young.

This week my great aunt died aged about 82. The on the day of the funeral, her elder sister, who was over 90, also died. Bizarre. Still, a good sign for me I suppose that there is so much longevity in the family...

That's sad news smurfy. Her sister maybe died from a broken heart.

I doubt it, none of them could stick her!


Aunty Anne was the spitting image of Frankie Howerd - quite scary for a 90 year-old woman...
