True, that. They all have a little store of stories they're going to tell at my un-funeral. Youngest grandson will surely tell the one about 'the time I caught Gran doing grocery shopping when it was (nearly) lockdown'.
Eldest granddaughter (who is very good at organising) had been over & shown me how to do the online grocery thing, & youngest grandson had volunteered to get anything needed in between times.
I didn't think there was any need to mention that I was doing the dreaded shopping the day before lockdown started, so off I went & did it. I was just coming out when this voice said 'And what do you think you're doing?!"
Bugger.
In my opinion this younger generation are altogether far too quick to whip out their bloody phones & take photos - & then send them around the entire whanau! By the time I got home, there were three tellings off waiting.
It wasn't even lockdown yet, dammit.

in order to be old & wise, you must first be young & stupid. (I'm still working on that.)
