I'm too young, well not really. Happy as a pig in poo.
All the fun of kids without the bother.
Time to make a toy car

Congrats!, someone has to teach kids bad habits, that's what grandads are best at

Seems anything over 30 is acceptable in my town to become a grandad

Hi

Chloe my grandaughter is 10, i'm 55 and she calls me Bob, has never called me grandad much to SWMBO disgust, it is great when she comes into my office and says "Bob you havent given me a kiss today" with her hands on her hips.

Needless to say she has me wrapped around her little finger and has had a 5' pink electric Corvette, a rugby ball and other bits and pieces not really suitable for a girl...lol

Regards

Bob

I'm 51 and its true I dont feel any older than 30's. Mind you, kit cars keep you young at heart. i want to be like the 75 year old I spoke to the other day that was pulled over in his XKR at 120 mph and told the law that he was just trying to dry it
