cindy. she's not just my hero but also my dear friend. she is old aand smells like pensioners. i love her because she shouts at me when i come home and cos she falls over when she shakes her head. once, my dad shouted and she fell over on her back and we thought she was dead but then she started waving her legs like a huge furry woodlouse and we knew she was gonna be ok.
....she's aged better than me...but she is slightly incontinent...i say that makes us about equal
