One of the things I notice with my grandchildren is the joy that they bring. They show a great deal of interest in what I’m doing and how I am. It’s just lovely having grandchildren who are really interested in you and concerned about you.
I think if you’re fortunate enough to have them near you, they keep you young, because there’s always something happening, isn’t there?
I’m retired, but the thing is there’s always someone coming in saying: 'Nan, can you mend this?' or 'can you do this sewing for me?' or 'can you pick the children up from school?'
My son and I fell out and he asked me not to contact my grandson anymore. I can’t understand what’s happened to affect our relationship in this way. My grandson has written to me to say he misses me.
