He continued: 'I was only thinking about her on the weekend, coz she’s so old. 99. I thought I better go and see her.'

Kyle then urged his listeners to keep in touch with their grandparents. 

'You should visit them. Everyone,' he urged. 'Even though they’re so boring and they smell weird, you gotta go there.'
