Happy Christmas to you too James, your photos have reminded me of happy times with my Grandchildren.

My youngest grandchild is now at Manchester University studying to be a doctor, and my youngest great grandchild (a boy) will arrive in February. Making a total of 6 grandchildren and 6 great grandchildren with one on the way. Hopefully I will still be around for the arrival of my first great, great grandchild.

james taken today at his 2nd session of martial arts his friend roman also joined and were given their special tee shirts...in this day and age and reckon this is a good thing...kim said if he does not like it after a few sessions she will try him again in a year or so but so far so good...james and roman could be taken for brother so just in case james is wearing the hat:)

Weighing in this morning at about 9.30 a.m. (three weeks early) and at 8 pounds 7 ounces our 6th great grandchild Aaron (the name is still debatable). Looking forward to the next and possibly a great great grandchild before I shuffle off this mortal coil.

Congratulations, Phil, really nice. I have nine grandchildren, but the eldest are still at university. I think it will be a while before I see any great grandchildren. :)

What a great way for a child to go. Did a bit of kung fu with my son when he was a teenager ( think it was I could drive us ). That was years ago but still do a few moves waiting on the micro wave etc.
