My Gran is wonderful.

At 88, with 14 grandchildren and 4 great-grandchildren, she is unquestionably the matriarch of the family, and she is at the centre of our lives.

But she is notoriously camera shy and hates posing!

So I was extra-chuffed to get this photograph of her while we were in Rhodes together this summer:

Isn’t she brilliant?
