Goodbye Nanny Hacking
She would have been pleased to have seen all the flowers at her funeral (which took place not so very many days ago). Indeed she often threatened that if there were not enough flower she might have to come back to haunt us. She need not have feared my nan was well loved and the service was very well attended.

My Nan loved flowers. She also loved her two children (my mum and my uncle (obviously)) and wanted to leave them a good inheritance. Sadly this might not actually be the case thanks to Thanet District Council.
If I were my nan I'd haunt TDC but maybe that's just me.

Over the next few weeks I intend to honour my nan as only a geeky fellow can - with a series of blog posts celebrating her life. I'll also be extensively correcting the Daily Mail on a few facts.
