What a grand story Lee. I like the sound of every one of those souls.
I think it wonderful that you have realised that our elders did the best they could do at the time.
We can all look back and say “ I could have, should have done better “
I grew up with my Grandparents. My mother and I moved in when mother left father, when I was two.
I never knew my father until I was 20 years old.
My grandma was the dragon queen too.
Once when I was about 14, we were in the car stopped at traffic lights. Two teenagers were in the car next to us and were teasing my gran, moving their car forward and back trying to get her to drag them off at the lights, laughing their heads off.
She just sat there staring ahead while I sat mortified in the passenger seat. When the lights changed however, I was thrown back into my seat, hurtling down the road, listening to my gran screaming with laughter and yelling “not this little old lady you don’t!”
Lol, that is pretty funny....and scary!!! I left out some of the AHS (American Horror Story) elements that are in the final chapter as I wanted it to look a little more forgiving:)
A demon and a dragon....wow they are probably great friends where ever they are, the afterlife mafia!
There is a Facebook page dedicated to people who live (or lived) in the village I grew up in, Houpman Fowk. Some write in the local 'language' and I am LOST:)
I LOVE going back in time with you! ✨️
Thank you Joshua. I have found documenting it to be strangely enjoyable:)
Looking forward to reading your memoirs and doing another podcast!

I never thought of her in the same way again.

My grandma’s family came from Skye so I’m sure they are having a great laugh listening to us talking about them!
And I am sure we would not understand a word of it now lol
You are 💯 right there!
