I just visited my stepmum and she told me this story for a chuckle.
So she went to the house where my nanas belongins were and my uncle suggested that she look through this jewellery box that was sitting on her dutress to see if she wanted anything.
She thought oh cool might find something nice in there as a keep-sake.
As she was looking through she came across a costume neckless that she thought oh this is kinda nice (nana ddnt have great taste, she was commonly found wearing a cap she got free, some form of bowls polo and mens shorts). Thats when my uncle chimed in "oh, actually i think ill give that one to kiri" (his wife)...
So my step mum thought uh ok and picked out a brooch that she kinda liked. Uncle chimes in again "oh um that one there i thought would look good on nana". So she finally picked out a couple pairs of earrings she found thinking she probably wouldnt wear em, but it was just the thought.
The next day she gets a phone call.
"Oh hi Lisa, um actually were going to need those earrings back"
Turns out the jewellery box hadnt even belonged to my nana...It belonged to the lady who was boarding at the house haha! My uncle took off with most of it up north and the other stuff is scattered around.
Come to think of it, nana never wore jewellery, nor even had her ears pierced!
