It was only a matter of time before our dear old parents, grandparents and anyone else in the patriarchal chain sniffed out the Facebook craze and wanted in on the action. For those that live a cleaner life, posting only the occasional wooded vista pic, general musing on the local council and a quirky video, this is all okay.
