Allotments 4 All

This is by J S Birkenhead.Saw it and had to laugh ,showed it to my boys and they laughed even louder.Thought that one or two more of you would like it.
I have a little Granny,She's really very old,
But also unconventional in a most unusual mould.
She doesn't wear spectacles perched upon her nose,
She's into contact lenses and varnishes her toes.
Unlike some other Grannies,who are home before it's dark,
She dresses up in a track suit,goes jogging in the Park.
And when i wish she'd sometimes stay and tuck me up in bed,She's off to study yoga and standing on her head.
Some Grannies sit in rocking chairs and crochet shawls indoors,
My Granny jumps upon a horse and rides across the moors.
She goes on day trips with her gang,the over 60's club
They racket round the countryside and end up in the Pub!
And on the homeward journey,like a flock of singing birds
They harmonise old favourites with some very naughty words!
I love my little Granny,I think she's simply great.If thats what growing old's like,i simply cannot wait.

I like that, BB! ;D

My youngest granddaughter decided yesterday that "your elbows are squishy, Nana, so you must be just a little bit old".

Hey BB - you've made my day :D  Being a member of the over 60's club so to speak, I can really relate to that, although I must admit I tend to follow slightly different activities, but can still dance alot of the youngsters off the floor :D :D

Excellent BB.  The thoroughly modern nan more or less sums my maternal nan up! My paternal nan on the other hand is the glasses perched on the end of her nose kinda nan.  hehehehe.  

I wanna be like that BB when I get old.........er!!!!  ;) ;)  :P

Thoroughly enjoyed that.  :D
