"Gran, you are my little sweet cherry plum." ❤️

Nan do you want to come up to my bedroom and boogie ?

Dgs: You're a little bit crazy and a little bit serious.
Me: which but do you like best.
Dgs: laughs little bit crazy!

From the previous thread (I obviously should have started a new one! smile
I love you
Thanks Mum (or Granny)
You look stunning
What can I do to help? (and meaning it)
I'll get this one
How about lunch/film/theatre?
I made this specially for you (from grandchildren)
Can I have a hug?

What would yours be?

"You're so cuddly Grandad"! (Don't mind who says it, other than other Grandads.) tchgrin

I am surprised that you didn't include Sex after the menopause, considering your recent post on another thread Vickixx

Vickixx Sat 29-Dec-18 14:24:02

Ah! Holdingontometeeth. Making love definitely makes me happy & now on reflection I’m probably blessed to still have an active sex life, especially when I have now taken the time to read what other women go through at my age. I’ve no complaints ?

‘ Your cash is being counted’

Gonegirl Sat 29-Dec-18 14:37:08

"You look better now you're fat", was pretty good.

Gonegirl Sat 29-Dec-18 14:37:52

I'm NOT fat. Actually. Just sturdy.

holdingontometeeth Sat 29-Dec-18 14:44:25

Daddima I knew that things would get better for me if I continued to " Look on the bright side of life "
Please can you tell me where I send off my £50,000 cheque to to ensure that bloody cash van arrives at the correct address, promptly, and fully laden with cash.
Even if it was meant for H1954 I am more deserving!

The only compliment I know my DF paid me - and that because someone with him told me.
'If anyone can do it, Monica can'

Both my parents were of the generation where praise was considered 'bad' for children. We knew they loved us and thought well of us but they would never say so directly to us. At their funerals, their friends all told us how endlessly proud they were of their 3 daughters.

Text from 15yr old grandson - "Hi Grandma, I am off school tomorrow and was just wondering if you wanted to meet up or anything?" smile

My wife is overly impressed by my vast knowledge of life.
Indeed, she regularly refers to me as a know it all, usually prefixed by an expletive.

absent Sun 30-Dec-18 02:51:21

I tend to smile at "Ask Granna".

Rufus2 Sun 30-Dec-18 03:03:53

Expressions that used to make me happy, whilst I was slaving away at my PC;!
1. "Darling; dinner's on the table!"
2. "Are you coming to bed, darling?"
:in that order! tchgrin

"We rub along together ok don't we " - romance is not dead.
" Thank you for helping me Nanny"
Lots of things said in canine speak which boil down to, we love you and we are glad you are home.
Have to say I don't think we will beat your comment though Gonegirl smile

dragonfly46 Sun 30-Dec-18 09:11:00

DH - we make a good team!
Although I sometimes think I am the more active member smile

Maggiemaybe Sun 30-Dec-18 09:16:20

Nanna, you know everything! (from a very wise two year old). smile
