At school my friend was in the same class as her uncle. Can anyone guess how that is possible? Does anyone want to guess?


😮




They went to a co-educational school :^O

.

the uncle was the teacher:)

Richo, re you comment on confusing relationships.....


my father used to introduce my stepfather to friends as his husband-in-law.

LOL Freshwater--its hard enough in RL-without


trying to work out the trick ones on this thread.


Think JV may have worked out the last one.


Richo. 

jvharrison,  I like that answer, but that's not it.


 


Her grandfather (her father's father) had a second marriage and had some more children. So it was her dad's step-brother who was in the same class as us at school. At the time her dad was about 40 and her uncle was 14.

An old man gazed on a photograph
In a locket he'd worn for years;
His nephew then asked him the reason why
That picture had caused him tears.
"Come listen," he said, "I will tell you, lad,
A story that's strange, but true!
Your father and I, at the school one day,
Met two little girls in blue.

that picture is one of those girls," he said
And to me she was once a wife;
I thought her unfaithful, we quarrelled lad,
And parted that night for life.
My fancy of jealousy wronged a heart,
A heart that was good and true -
For two better girls never lived than they,
Those two little girls in blue."

Two little girls in blue, lad,
Two little girls in blue.
They were sisters, we were brothers
And learned to love the two.
And one little girl in blue, lad,
Who won your father's heart,
Became your mother. I married the other,
And now we have drifted apart.
