WILF 47,505 Posted February 8 Report Share Posted February 8 Still not and that’s fine, we have to give a good few years vetting to prospective partners to make sure they’re not total pricks ! 1 1 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

chartpolski 24,436 Posted February 8 Report Share Posted February 8 (edited) I was 62 when I became a grandparent. Going swimming, playing football etc with a 9 year old boy is a bit of a challenge but I wouldn’t miss it for the world ! Cheers.

gnipper 6,532 Posted February 9 Report Share Posted February 9 I'm a grumpy miserable b*****d I can't deny it but I'm hoping I will be able to be active and interesting enough to teach my grandkids enough naughty stuff to see them through to adulthood. I never had a grandad myself but I meet people throughout my life who tell me how great a man my grandad was and it fills me with pride, hopefully my grandkids experience similar. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Councilestatekid 1,931 Posted Sunday at 02:49 Report Share Posted Sunday at 02:49 Told mine they'd better not make me a grandad before I'm 50!!! I had 3 kids before I was 23 so I'd like mine to get careers all sorted and them settled etc before kids and give me a few years of freedom 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
