Rob Roy Posted February 24, 2014 Report Posted February 24, 2014 (edited) Well folks what can I say. What a wonderfull day was had by all, especially the two 5year olds. My grandson and I.!! Haven't had such fun in a long, long while. What made it more enjoyable was the 254 foot long three masted sail boat, first time i've had coffee on a three master.( it won't be the last I can assure you).The wee one had a go at scrubbing the deck on the ship, but admitted it wasn't as much fun as he thought. Just looking at the deck Srubber and the bucket of water gave me palpitations, I thought I was going to have to use the NITRO for the old ticker. As I say the best time I've had in a long time, in fact since I was 5 years old. Looking forward to the next visit but I'll have to remember I am NOT 5 years old, there's another 63 to take into consideration. . Hope you all had as good a day as I did. Rob Roy.

" Larry Well Larry, thank you for the compliment. A bit nicer than Keith's comment. . I would advise any grandfather who is able enough to have a day like I had, grab the opportunity with both hands. IT'S BETTER THAN ANY DRUG and you can share it with anyone. Have a good day Larry. Rob Roy. Quote

Well, Carl, as you say, grab the moment. That was a really fantastic day and as I said to Larry, it's better than any drug. Mind you it did have some side efects . Nice to know some of the happiness has rubbed off on you. I have a funny feeling the Queen will just email me since next day shipping is too expensive. Keep smiling Carl and have a good day. Rob Roy.

Kepy Posted February 25, 2014 Report Posted February 25, 2014 I remember those days when the boys were little and a joy. They are now 28 and 30 and not such a joy. Enjoy them while they are young enough to appreciate what you do. Sounds like a fun day. Rob Roy 1 Quote

Multifasited Posted February 25, 2014 Report Posted February 25, 2014 I don't know about other places ,but here as soon as they start school ,The institution and peer pressure puts the kabosh on the adorable rug rats and now with cell phones ,interactive computors ,face book & manditory texting, etc.,the cute little munchkins Transform into other manifistations of a different discription and become the intitled ones.Enjoy them while you can , drastic changes are coming. I personally do not know anybody that I have to constantly comunicate with in order for there to be fulfilling life .I obviously am unique ,as all I see is kids and adults who can not exist without w/o a phone to there ear or thumbs flying 16 hours a day .If the web ever goes down the therapist are going to be over welmed ,I wonder if that is covered by Obama Care ?
