Oooh TeeGee how great they are! Grandads (and Nanas) are so special.  :)

Mine is 85, 4 weeks ago he had a small stroke and scared the life out of all of us.
I went on Saturday to deliver presents and have dinner-he RAN up his stair case to show me the rug he wants me to have then recalled the name of an obscure film based on a Russian poem that he recorded on Betamax for me 20 years ago.
He and my Nana are responsible for most of my really happy childhood memories and have been a massive influence on me and the way I live my life.  ;D

Excellent idea TeeGee- just what we need out front before the kids get here. Thanx for the idea. :)

They are great.  Its lovely being able to pass on the skills.  Last year we had just about enough and I had to show the local kids (from old english not goats) how to roll up a huge snows ball to make a man.

I have always wished that I had memories of my Grandparents but being the 8th one of 9 children that wasn't to be. I love it when 6 of my Grandchildren laugh and talk lovingly or their Granddad, unfortunately the youngest two were too young to remember him.
