Inspired by comments in another thread.
What are your favourite (or otherwise) memories of your grandparents.
How do
you see your roll as a grandparent now as opposed to previous generations.
As said in other thread, one gran was in her 60s by time I was born. Other gran was a bit younger, and I'm sure she worked till she dropped. At one stage she was homehelp to my other gran. Younger gran, Doris, prob 60 by the time I can remember her, was fun. All other kids were still at home apart from my dad, my auntie only a few years older than me. Used to have lots of fun there, and remember her Sunday teas with everyone sat round the table.
Neither gran, even then, was used as a childminder. Older gran did live with us for a few years. Had to share a bedroom with her. Remember having to stick my head under the covers while she put her corsets on!
