Another grandchild memory for me. Grandson Peter, who is now 19, aged about 2 got up early one Sunday morning and decided to do some housework before Mummy got up. He got the dog's water dish and a cloth from the kitchen and bathed the video machine, then dried it off with a towel - and talcum powder. Nana and Grampa (me and Himself) were woken at 8 a.m. by a frantic phone call from Mummy, wailing, "What can I do?". Grampa said to put it out in the back garden for the day where the wind could dry it, then vacuum it. She did; it recovered; it
still works.
I won't go into all the things my own 3 got up to. We'd be here all night.
