Eve didn't last very long though, dying at 30. Serves her right.

I remember someone (was it Jess?) telling me that you could download a tree from the LDS site with space for 300 generations! That's about 9,000 years.....

There was a girl at Croydon station on Sunday talking on her phone. I wasn't paying attention till she said "Wave to Granny". Daughter and grandchild going through on another train. I hastily revised her age upwards, but she still cannot have been much above 35.

Perhaps LDS think we will all live forever.

Or she could be a step-granny (the person who Phoenix saw, I mean)?
