To clap my hands and skip about in a elephantine manner?

I'm going to be a grandfather! Woo hoo! They haven't tuppence to rub together, so there'll be 3 generations under one roof. Still, DD is doing well after the throwing stopped, he's working all the hours God sends, and with luck I shall see New Person into their teens, as opposed to my DF who got less than 7 years of DGF hood. Wish us luck.

His 6th was in August, this is him on Sunday. See the two little dots in the surf? One of them is DD, who's also impervious to cold. I was paddling, having a gippy tummy. I went in the following day though, good for what ails you.

Happy birthday MiniYChromosome! Running around on the beach is exactly how I chose to spend my birthday too.

6th birthday?

I forgot to mark his birthday, so here's a picture that typifies him: wearing dinosaurs, throwing something, and impervious to the cold.

Just to give you massive envy, this photo was taken 10 minutes from our house.

As for the Little Prince himself, he's an entertaining and exhausting lunatic. He is composed equally of kevlar, electricity, and impudence.
