Lot of stick at work for me, I am 45 on Friday.....
It really bothered me when we first found out, but my daughter & boyfriend (a very talented stainless & alloy welder ) have worked really
hard to get their lives organised.
Im really chuffed as Ive inherited a great son in law , my daughter has matured into a mum, and I have a little petrolhead to work on...

Personally I think you're just glad to have secured the talented welder & a future kitcar apprentice to work for you!!
Congrats & best wishes to the proud parents
I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator
headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names

He's right, it's expensive, but being a Grandad is the best thing imaginable (like having children but with the experience to enjoy
it).
Congratulations

BIG CONGRATS to you and yours!
Having kids of my own has made me re-appreciate my parents all over again and in new ways, which I'm sure your daughter and son inlaw will too.
Great that you're young enough to really enjoy grandkids too!
