Loved the whistling VC remins me of the great Roger whittaker, or should that be grand?

I've always liked the sound of cousins once removed, its sound like they have done something bad.

I know...I know!

Box of monkeys this lot..

[Nicos]

..or are you referring to your 'logic'???

( both aspects are entertaining!)

[Aberdeenplotter]

My logic is impeccable and yes I did stick my tongue out to answer VC's question in another thread. .

As for entertaining, well I can't answer that but if it makes someone happy

[Aberdeenplotter]

wanders off to see if a box of is the collective for monkeys

[veggiechicken]

See if you can find a box of chocolates while you're searching please........I feel like a Nutty one

[Nicos]

"Is that a seed box on top of that car????"

[Aberdeenplotter]

nah, but it does look like a blow up monkey lying there

According to Ancestry.co.uk

Your Grandmother's Sister is your Grand Aunt
Your Great Grandmother's Sister is your Great Grand Aunt

I get called Great Aunt but it seems it should be Grand Aunt.

[Sheneval]

Think of it as the same terminology as grandfather/grandmother and great grandfather/grandmother

[Aberdeenplotter]

I do Shen but others don't. It's hard to see how there could be any confusion. Probably some doddery old biddy in a state of confusion told an ignorant relative the wrong thing and it has spread and stuck
