1. Why is Larry so Happy? (Amy)

Dear Amy, Lara is thought to refer to an Australian boxer, Larry Foley, who lived from 1847 to 1917. It's said that he was never defeated, retired as a champion, was relatively well off and lived to 70. I guess he was pleased with his life's outcome! The phrase "Happy as Larry" is thought to originate in Australia or New Zealand around that time, although the first official record of it was by a New Zealand writer named G L Meredith, who wrote in about 1875: "We would be as happy as Larry if it were not for the rats". This doesn't discount the theory about Larry Foley, but it is possible there is another explanation.

Dear Lara, for now I can only tell you about my Mum, but once I've talked to her I should be able to answer your question fully. My Mum has 4 siblings 2 brothers and 2 sisters. I think my Grandma just had one brother but I'm not sure. Why do you ask?
