[WoodJunky]

Congratulations Grandpa Shorty and also to Brocks Mum and Dad

9 lb 1 oz, Wow that is one big boy!!

Your never too young to be a grandfather

I have 3 grandsons and the oldest has just turned 8 and I am only 50 and I can imagine there are members that are young grandparents as well

So you can never be too young !!

I also feel sorry for the old pharts who are too old to play with their grandkids

Congrats Shorty

You know the worst thing about being a grandfather is that you have to sleep with a grandmother.

Shorty, congratulations.
Never to young to be a grandfather, so be proud !!!
I was 54 when the first arrived, now I have 7 grandkids, 5 boys, 2 girls.
One of the boys, age 9, love it to do turnings on my lathe.

My opinion is that one is never too young to be a grand-parent. Congratulations, and I hope all is well.

It's not so bad, I'm 51 with three of the little rug-rats - think of them as growing apprentices.

Congratulations.

Shorty,

Never to young to be a grandfather. A least at this point in time you'll remember their names:U:U.

My grandaughter is 8. My daughter is 7(nearly 8) and my son is 3(nearly 4). I have a great time when the are all together. Just got to remember to turn the power off in the shed. (That's their play area:o:doh:)

The one who is most proud is Great Grandfather (he's 84).

[lubbing5cherubs]

beautiful bubby hope mum is well too
