Hate sending bills to friends

[Specialist]

Glad to hear it mate, who's the Bonny little 1 ? God mine were that little once

 

[trev]

That's our first grandson mate 19 months old now, he can't get enough of me. If they come round and I'm out working he'll run round shouting for me until someone rings so he can talk to me.

God I still haven't emailed him the bill. Anyone want to do the bill and email it to him?

 

[Specialist]

Cracking, Make the most of it while you can mate. They grow up way too quick.

 

[trev]

Only seems like 5 minutes since we were carrying him everywhere and feeding every few hours round the clock.
Sleep deprivation, oh happy memories

 

[Specialist]

Aye, it does'nt last long & then your left wondering where the time went. My eldest just started her apprenticeship & had to move to be nearer work, seems like only yesterday she was starting in infant school.

 

[trev]

In a way it's a bit sad but you have to let go sooner or later. For his first 9 months the daughter and him lived with us, we were distraught when they moved out (never mind the fact it was only 5 minutes walk away hehe)

 

[Specialist]

Bet as it's that far away you don't see them very often:wink_smile:

 

[trev]

No, we see him every day without fail. I missed out on too much with our own 3 through working away so I'm trying to miss nothing with him. I've not told the daughter because she'd have been unhappy but I got his first ever smile.

 

[Specialist]

Yeah, I used to work away a lot at 1 time. Money was good but no family life.

Trev, Specialist, you pair of soppy sods, i know where your coming from though and the best thing about grand kids is you can give them back!

 

[trev]

Guilty as charged your honour. We'd happily keep him, even if he does like to wake me up at 6am on a Sunday by poking me in the face.

 

[kathwilcox]

i would happily keep my granddaughter but have forgotten how much hard work they are! Only have one child left at home now and he looks after me, hahaha

 

[Specialist]

I've hopefully got the pleasure of Grandkids yet to come. I've still got 2 at home, 1 just turned 11 & the other 9 going on 90. The 9 year old keeps trying to nick my tools & meters for her toolbox

 

[trev]

We weren't expecting hm to come along for another few years yet
Funyy thing that missing tools malarkey, I found my old pyro gear in the youngest son's wardrobe the other week. No clue how it got there because he didn't do it, must have been the fairys again

 

[Dipzy]

Them fairies seem to be very busy eh?

 

[Specialist]

:yes: They're little buggers for nicking tools, those fairies. When my eldest was little I had a cracking pair of pliers that went missing, we looked everywhere we could think of with no luck. About 2 years later, my mate came to do a plumbing job for us & discovers my pliers. There was a small loose board in the Airing cuboard & she'd hidden them under there & forgotten about them, my missus still winds her up about it now

 

[kathwilcox]

yes i have a tool fairy at my house as well, it steals the extension lead and battery jigsaw out of my van, which is a real pain when you go to use them and there not there!

i have 3 boys, 23,22 & 17, 15 month old granddaughter from middle son.

oh the joys of being a granny! LOL

 

[Specialist]

Bet that tool fairy is also known as your other half :wink5:

 

[kathwilcox]

Oh yes I can have anything that's better than what he has or it magically disappears, when I got a new tool bag I didn't even get chance to put my tools in it!
