  I had a grandfather and a great aunt living in the village when I was a child. I always thought "great Aunt" sounded much older than grannie or grandad. Of course, I called her Aunty Kitty, as my mother did. Her grandchildren and the men who worked in their business all called her "Gran" - I wouldn't be surprised if her son did too! ::)
