Much to busy organising the Alfold Charity Boat Show, helping at Merstham Steam Show, boating, trying to make time for Wicksteed, selling the house and then going away with the caravan to France for babysitting.
May find time when he can hold a transmitter to look after him. O0 O0

Absolutely agreewith that, but they don't half eat the time up, don't begrudge him a second though he is the light of my life and at the moment he loves boats, trains, planes and motorbikes O0

Yes, good idea :-))

Sureley that'd include most of us though, Perhaps a corner for non-Grandads and the rest for us?
