I helped at an Alzheimer's Course this morning while DH went to collect Bertie (5) and Persie (4). After lunch, we went to the park and when we got back Pa and Bertie did jigsaws while Persie and I played 'mummies and babies'. I was baby and had to have a nap while mummy went shopping. Unfortunately, mummy didn't come back and, you can guess the rest........DH came to look for me about half an hour later. blush

That made me smile kl we used to play ambulances when DGS was small. Needless to say I was always the patient and had to lie on the settee, often managed forty winks while he drove me to hospital. smile

My enlightening moment came when my 4 year old grandson said ' let's play buses , I'll be the bus driver.'

I said ' what shall I be?' .

He looked me up and down and announced ' you can be the speed bump Nana !'

Oh, Nana!
Being shown the new fiver GS 6 thoughtfully commented that I was like Churchill. I wondered whether it was his leadership skills or his literary ability we had in common so asked 'Why?' GS replied 'You're both overweight.' It seems he'd been told that he shouldn't say 'fat'.
Trying not to chuckle I explained that people who are 'overweight' do know and really prefer not to be told.

When DGD was 2, she developed a habit of picking up any banknote that her DF left lying around (he had a bad habit of emptying his pockets & just leaving the cash on tables etc) and bringing It to me, always pointing to the picture on it and shouting, 'Grandma, it's Grandma'..! grin
Apart from wearing glasses, anyone less like HM it would be hard to find...
Then one day she found his wallet (also left on the bookcase in the hall) and I presented him with £90, his credit card & his work security pass... shock
He's stopped leaving stuff around...! wink

Today, after a strenuous visit to the play farm, I closed my eyes for a minute. GS shouted WAKE UP, THE SUN'S SHINING!! face about 2 inches from mine....
Turns out, he's been trained by parents to use a Groclock, and only wake up/get out of bed when the clock face turns from moon and stars to smiley sun face ?
