Grand parents...

[ummmm]

How many of you still have their grand parents alive?

[EcclesCake]

Mine did hang around for me to be born!

I've often wondered what it would have been like to have grandparents :-(

[mccfluff]

nope :-(

[woofgang]

neither parents nor grandparents.

My paternal grandparents died many years ago. My maternal grandparents are very much alive and kicking at 87 and 85. Grandad still digs his garden and goes for a run at 5am every day. He can still hold an audience and can enthrall a whole room with his stories and his inimitable sense of humour. My grandmother on the other had can stop him in his tracks with the words "oh do shut up B****".

I have two... my mum's dad and my dad's mum.

I knew one of my grandmothers, she has now passed away, the others died before I was born.

At our wedding we had both of our maternal grandparents!
Both of my children had great-grannies at their weddings.
My grandchildren have all four grandparents still alive, plus 2 great-grannies (aged 95 and 88) - aren't they lucky?

[ummmm]

I still have mine...My Mums Mum & Dad...

I dropped off some cakes to my gramps this morning....he's a moody grumpy so and so...

I'm 38....I'm lucky :-)

Sadly none. I know a 10 year old lad who has four Grandparents and three great Grandparents alive.

[marval]

None, my maternal grandmother died years ago. She is the only one I remember.

[ummmm]

Mine have 13 great grand children...

Me and my sister are the eldest grand kids....the rest are just lime light stealer's!! :-)

[Smowball]

I don't. Wish I did though.

[EvianBaby]

Nope. All long gone. I often wish I could have a chat with my maternal Grandad now. I think we'd have a lot in common.

My maternal nan is still alive, her husband died before I was born. All of my husband's grandparents have passed away but they were a generation older than my grandparents (my nan is only two years older than my father-in-law)

[funnygirl]

Mine died over 20 years ago and hubby's last grandmother died over ten years ago.

[albaqwerty]

My maternal grandfather was alive when I was born but died when I was about 2.
All others were long gone.

I only had a Nan on my mum's side when I was a kid. My OH still has his Gran in her 90's and when my son was born her parents were still alive and there were 5 generations of us for a little while.
