greenlands Posted October 6, 2016 Report Posted October 6, 2016 A tough old sheep farmer from the Scottish Highlands gave some advice to his granddaughter back at the start of the Great War in 1914. He told her that the secret to a long life was to sprinkle a pinch of gunpowder onto her breakfast porridge every morning. The grand daughter followed this dictum religiously until her death at the venerable age of 109. She left behind 14 children, 30 grandchildren, 45 great-grandchildren, 25 great-great-grandchildren and a 20 yard hole where the crematorium used to be.
