I was told a story as a child about a pregnant woman who read a sign and decided to call her child by that name - nosmo. In reality part of the sign was obscured. It really read no smoking.
After giving up the habit I chose Nozmo for my name.
 
The problem is I forget that I am not 5ft {oh the dream I still carry around}. One of my brothers introduce me to his friends as the "family gnome".
My grandmother and my husbands grandmother both stood 4 foot and 11 3/4 inches tall and that 3/4 inches was precious to both of them.

Okay you couple of Tweens - try 1951 and 1953 - 53 is my toyboy husband of nearly 46 years.
I was born 57 and hubby 58 and been married 44 years as of January and lived together for nearly 3 years prior to that and for 6 weeks each year (there is exactly 6 weeks between our birthdays and hence 2 year age difference) he will call me a cradle snatcher and I call him my toy boy.

I was born in 59' and my partner was born in 68'.
My mother was even better, she was 20 years older than my stepdad who was only 4 years older than my oldest brother in Australia. I have another brother in England who was 4 years older than my stepdad lol
