    Many Congratulations!!!! They are so much less work than the kids, you just play with them and then give them back....

    And you can get your own back on your kids, by buying your grand kids really annoying presents, e.g. a trumpet, drums... and then b*gger off home

    Congratulations lass.

    I was a grandad at 37, it doesn't take long before you're used to it. lol

    It was like becoming a dad all over again, I love it.

    The only tips that I have are....

    Help the parents and offer friendly advice without getting in the way,

    Spoil the grandchild,

    Be the grandchild's best friend so they can talk to you when they are older.

    I have a very good relationship with my grandson, he talks to me about stuff he doesn't want to talk to his mum about. We're like best mates and love each other to bits. I hoe to have the same relationship with my granddaughter when she is older (she'll only be 2 next month).

    Most of all lass......ENJOY IT !

    Start buying nappies now!

    Mums & new babies get soooo many gifts.....but it's all the "essentials" that run away with the money.

    Many congratulations
