I admit I am no Fanny Cradock..........but surely that's a good thing.
Old Fanny Craddock, that's showing your age Syl
I have always had a truly mortal fear of Fanny.
Most Johnny's do.
I don't think anyone got my little joke.
Johnny = John Doe.... and Fannys husband was called Johnny too, and he was under her thumb, hence my little joke...most Johnnys are scared of Fanny.
I got the joke!

That was an early Christmas present.
What a cracking final - The Juddernaut rolls on but Jack can be really proud of his performance tonight and perhaps will finally start winning some trophies on that form.
Must be hard playing your best mate though!

Well it's all over....Boxing day is usually when we get together with family members we didn't see on Christmas day, not for us (or millions others) this year....so may as well say Christmas is done with now for 2020.
What we did we enjoyed, hope everyone else had a good time too....and roll on the new year.

I finally got permission on Christmas to publicly announce that I don't have one granddaughter on the way in May, but two.
The race for the stirrups is on as they are due two days apart.
I think these kids have been doing more than working from home.

Finally some good news for a change!
Congratulations MD and those are great photos as well!

Thank you ma'am. I was starting to wonder if I was ever going to have grandkids, then bam. Two on the way.

Double joy. I make no secret that being a nan has been one of the biggest blessings in my life, you will love being a grandad, grandpop, whatever name you are given.
My OH is still grandang, because grandson could never pronounce Grandad properly...and the name stuck, he even writes it on his cards.
Is it my imagination, but did your girls both fall for men who looked a bit like their dad?

I wanted to be called grandpa. My girls overuled me. We shall see if their girls overrule them. 😉
My girls are attracted to large-ish athletic, outdoorsy men who are very confident, educated and successful.
I think my girls found men with more of my attributes and less of my negatives. They are great guys and as a father that makes me very happy. I've watched so many men my age watch with despair as their daughters jumped from one loser to the next.
I guess in a looks department, they sort of resemble me, but I know they are taller than me.
They also respect me, which is very important too.

And these two tie the knot in September. My daughter has him whipped into shape. He's a great guy too. And all of the guys get along great too. I guess that similarity helps. No drama when we all get together.
Those photos are brilliant, someone has a good eye taking pics,
It's great that your girls have all found men who respect them...also you and hopefully your ex too. Having three girls that must have been a worry, will any man love them and treat them in the way they deserve?
No one can predict the future obviously, but it seems like your daughters have picked wisely. x
