Numbers

Peggy was on holiday with her four children (and three partners) and seven grandchildren and, if you counted Sasha's bump, one great-grandchild.
Peggy was seventy-eight. The oldest, and last surviving, of seven sisters. And she had paid £3,760 to get them all here.
The Doctors had given her a 20% chance of living until next Summer. Peggy reckoned that this gave her an 80% chance of proving them wrong.

She knew three things; they would all be here again next year and Sasha's baby would be a girl.

And she would be called Peggy.
