Congratulations, you'll need some knee extensions at this rate.
To be happy, I don't need private helicopters,a Florida house or a yacht. I'm fine with my motorcycle,a trip to a forest in Bavaria and some lunch money.

Congratulations Grumps. I've got 5, all boys. I'll need an extension to the pillion.

Congratulations.

Treat em like your grandparents did you.High on sugar and imune to any worries about dirt or outside goes down so well with modern parents. I let the nephew help me change oil ( keeps them regular you know)  then "paid" him in biscuits. Hyper five year old with oily hands and a white t- shirt  :dl_hyperhysteria:

The little *** grassed us up for having two pints while dog walking. Modern yoof  :icon_batterup:

Congrats Grumps.   :thumb:

I have no grand children yet so can focus more on the bike and trips and not baby-sitting and no long list of Easter Eggs and Christmas presents and certainly no 'favorites' and use my little extra cash on treats everytime they visit.

I don't think I'm missing anything, am I?  :grin:
So how's it going so far then?

Great thing about grandchildren is that you can hand them back.

My wife is completely into them and that allows me more bike time. I want to go away with the lads on bikes - she says she'll visit the grandchildren. Win Win :grin:
