Getting back to the original topic, and while you're talking about halloween.
My grandmother died on October 31 2003, aged 99 years and 4 months.
She was of course, my daughters g grandmother and my grand daughter's g g grand mother.

We have a lovely picture of my grand daughter aged about 4 months, sat on her g g grandmother's lap!!!

Shame we didn't have a tape recorder, as my gran was also singing a nonsense song she used to sing to my mum, that her mum had sung to her.

Like there isn't enough to look at already.lol
