Just found out my gran died this morning. Bit gutted tbh - I genuinely thought we might get another Christmas out of her.
Here she was just last year being her usual cheeky self:
She clocked up 96 years - pretty good effort really.
(she wasn't evil, nor was she ever referred to as Evil Nan - she preferred to go by the name, "Mama" - she's just my nan, and I'm Evil Rob on teh internets, so that's where the subject comes from in case you were wondering.)

Crazy to think she was born in 1915/1916, imagine what her life has seen!

That is crazy. 96 is a good age
As said, sorry for your loss.
Evil Nan though That made me chuckle.

She had an awesome life - even did a stint in Kenya building wind-powered water pumps to help get water to places where there wasn't any. Who does that!?

I know beaut means something different here, but is there a chance he meant beauty?
I'd like to hope so...

In that case, I apologise and retract my comment - I wasn't the only one who thought you were being an arse though.
Perhaps file that particular compliment under "will probably get taken the wrong way" for future reference.
