Me and Gran-nan in 2009.
This is my great-grandmother. She is one of my biggest inspirations and I love her with all my heart - we all do. She is an amazing lady, nearly 100 years old, with the strongest personality and sharpest brain of anyone I know. She is also endlessly stylish and elegant, with a wonderful sense of humour and an encyclopaedic knowledge of Hollywood and old films. She was the first of our family to travel to Zimbabwe (then Rhodesia).
We have just found out that she is very, very sick. I hope that we will still be able to see her when we get to the UK in a couple of weeks' time, but I know that she will always be with me - and all our family. There's no way someone this strong-willed and vibrant will ever just disappear.
