Biography of Lorraine

Lorraine, our barmy auntie from Nevada.

Might be it is true, when she tells us she has been adopted by Aliens, even it might just be she is a little confused due to the flight by US-Airmail.

At any rate she talks a lot and I mean a lot, of longlimbed creatures with luminous eyes and even if we try to tell her that such teddies do exist, she insists she has been prized open and that 'those monsters did something to me inside'.

Anyway, she is a relative to Ella, allthough neither seems to indulge in the next-of-kin-subject.
