Much as I like Bernard, my real Grandads were better.

CommonNortherner · 23/12/2009 16:17

I never had any Grandads, they all died before I was born, so I'll take whatever's on offer!!

JollyPirate · 23/12/2009 16:44

Bernard Cribbens is a good offer Common.

So sorry to hear that. One of my grandads dies before I was born, the other over 25 years ago

Hey - there's another 'I want Bernard Cribbins to be my grandad' page on FB with 95 members (with a lower case g not a capital G like ours). Great minds I suppose. Altogether then he's got over 200 grandchildren!
