I particularly loved her as a mermaid in the film Miranda, when I was small.
RIP Glynis
I had the absolute privilege and honour to meet a lady tonight who was 100 years old. What an amazing lady. She must have so many stories to tell, and I would have gladly sat there and listened for hours. She got 7 different letters for her 100th birthday last October. Firstly, from the King, but also other state dignitaries in NSW, and I think the Governor General. She was so proud. She was secretly sad that she didn't get one from Queen Elizabeth, but was still stoked to get one from the king.
A lovely, spritely lady, who still lives at home. Still mostly independent. Her family help her with the housework and shopping, but she still takes care of herself, cooks and gardens.
