    Hi Everybody, Just wanted to share my good news with my friends in Macland.

    My son's girlfriend gave birth to a baby boy yesterday morning. He weighed 7lbs 1oz. His name is Declan and he is gorgeous (just like his granny - everybody tells me so) ha ha, one wishes!

    This is my third grandson and I have another on the way in 12 weeks.

    I feel sad that my dad, who passed away 10 weeks ago won't get to see the wee ones…

    Dad was taken into hospital yesterday in preparation for a colonoscopy today.  When we arrived they didn't have a bed for him until I stuck my oar in and explained that he had cancer and couldn't sit about in a waiting room all day.

    Hi Everybody, just wanted to say that I won't be on here for a while as I am getting married on Saturday and am heading straight to Benidorm for three weeks in the sun.  We are taking 21 family members with us (seemed a good idea at the time) lol.

    I am so looking forward to a bit of r & r as we haven't had a holiday for two years.

    So, I hope you all keep as well as can be expected and I look forward to catching…
