Hello  All  - Thank you Gadget for Grandma. Are you going to tell us that other story  ??? ??? Hope so.

Tomkin - that baby is a little Munchkin - in other words I could eat him...........

Did you all  like the photo of my pa/in/law ?

Pentio - if this carries on we may well get a heading on the main page for all those who love the old photos !

Bye........

Hi Pentio - Glad you liked the photo  :D   As you say - so many to reply to and easily missed messages !
We shall have to see if we can track Noelene down.
I was going to suggest that you show the newcomers where to go (shall I re-phrase that) as regards the original threads. They may like to take a look - be in the picture so to speak !
Will sort a few more of Uncle G's soon.........
Kind regards.

And I think this is the last one we have. In 1948. They used this for her obituary. She died in 1949 when I was 3 and she was the most lovely, cuddly, funny Gran that you could wish for  :)
