Just need to dig out the hijab i wore in Saudi 49 years ago, and I'll have a new career :-D

Just have to say - that's a picture of 'Grumpy Granny', or 'Thoughtful Granny' - not my normal stance, which is 'Why did I come onto this room Granny' . :-D

It's not about him - it's about his mother!
I think I've found my nearest lookalike ever!

My children have been laughing themselves silly.

They showed the grandchildren (aged from 5 to 21, this photo, and asked who it was.
All of them said 'Granny!'

And yes, I'm afraid I can speak like her too. :-\
