Well, three weeks at the Gold Coast with our son & daughter & two grand kids has come to an end  so quickly.

We arrived back home yesterday , safe & sound .

A good time was had by all , our grand daughter had her first b/day party on saturday, one already, makes it feel like the clocks are stuck on fast forward.

Our son & his partner announced their engagment while we were there ,very pleasing.

Time now to pack the van & off the the beach on saturday for two weeks .

Makes you wonder how we made time to go to work.

Cheers;

Flying time is just as difficult. It never stops.

Mate, nothing like time with Grandchildren. Glad you had a great time. As for time flying, cast your mind back, probably more years than most of us care to admit. When we were kids it took forever for birthdays and Christmasses to came around. Now it seems they are here every other week. So much so I don't even bother to take down the coloured lights. Still, Easter Eggs will be in the shops in three weeks time!!!!!!! I have seen Hot Cross buns in a Bakers Delight in the past couple of weeks.

To me it's like 52 weeks every year.

My grandkids get more goodies on a weekly basis than I remember getting only twice a year:

Birthday and Xmas.
