Great Gran and I were in almost perpetual competition for Nan's attention. One day on a shopping trip to Broadstairs I distinctly heard her to say to Nan that they should leave me at the bus stop and collect me when they had finished shopping - I think I was about 6 at the time. I like to think she was joking, but I suspect not as she wasn't known for a sense of humour.
What un-great-grandmotherly behaviour! She should have been at home knitting you clothes rather than trying to desert you on shopping trips!
ReplyDeleteSuspect I was a bit of a brat and the temptation just proved too much.
