SOOOO!!! You MET my Granny family then?
GREAT!!
My Granny could carry two three month old reindeer under each arm, (so we Are talking about FOUR here!) and take them for a kilometer to the sheds, through half meter high snow.
My Grandfather was an ex U-Boot commander with about 1 meter 80...hmmm 6' 5" or so? Across the shoulders. Built BIG, red hair in a three centimeter thick plait about a meter and a half long, and arms like Arnold Schwarznegger.
SHE was about five foot five inch, built BIG, red hair in a three centimeter thick plait about a meter and a half long, and arms like Arnold Schwarznegger.
We came back from sea, and my Granny heard on the radio (Think "The storm" here) that we were "due in".
Aye, so we were. We cashed in the cath and went to the pub. HMMMM! She knew EXACTLY were to find us.
Have you EVER seen an 1 meter 80...hmmm 6' 5" or so? Across the shoulders. Built BIG, red hair in a three centimeter thick plait about a meter and a half long, and arms like Arnold Schwarznegger capitain, being dragged out of a pub by the ear from a five foot five inch, built BIG, red hair in a three centimeter thick plait about a meter and a half long, and arms like Arnold Schwarznegger Wife??? (To say NOTHING of the Grandson in the other hand! Hmmm....O.K....ME!)
