A very funny woman. What a brilliant age! I do remember Rent-a-Ghost. I used to love it. Sue Nichols (Audrey in Coronation Street) was in it too. Viv |

Isn't she the little Scottish lady who used to do the Flash adverts as well (Flash cleans baths without scratching!)? But of course I could be wrong as I was only a very little girl at the time lol. Mandy :) |

I remember her from (I think) "Ray's a Laugh" on the radio in which she was Aggie, the maid to the Ray family. Yes she was in some advert (could be Flash) - "Mrs Mac". |

How sad, didn't realise she was that age. I've read all her books, a lovely writer. Is her brother Tom still alive? Christine |

he was born in 1914 - and as far as I am aware - Tom Weir is alive and well! |

Shelia, he was a wee old man when I was a kid, right fit wee man, with his plus fours and his tammy. Wonder if he's still hiking his way around Scotland? BTW Scotland's oldest woman died today too at the age of 111 Christine |
