Stormin 9,981 #1 Posted September 7, 2020 Had a phone call from Liam, No1 grandson with the navy in Cyprus. Seems like we're going to be great grandparents Really made up for him and Jemma his wife. Only seems like five minutes ago he was helping wash my Yamaha FZR 1000, with a feather at just over a year old. 4 4 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ebinmaine 67,274 #2 Posted September 7, 2020 Congrats Norm. Old saying is: You're only as old as you feel. I'm 5 in the mind for sure. Physical age depends on many variables. 1 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
