My gran talked with me in a rather informal chat (I believe tea and biscuits constitutes as "informal") about what she had done with her life up until recent, being altogether frank about how she had to leave the workforce early (as a full time maternity nurse, delivering many of my friends in school!) due to a heart attack.

But on a lighter note! I gained a very valuable insight in to a field of work my gran continues to pursue. Every week, volunteers from the community (my hometown of Paisley, Renfrewshire) gather to record the local newspaper on to cassettes, which are then distributed throughout the town for free to the visually impaired.
Clicky!

Perhaps a device could be made to network people, visually impaired or not, around the world with their local news back home?
My gran is way awesome.
