I'm a Grandad Again, Yea.

Hi guys I would just like to share with you the arrival of our third Grandchild, he is just beautiful.

Born this morning at 4.20am, he is 47 centimeters long and weighed 7lb and 8ozs, he is yet unnamed.

Also here is a new photo of his big brother, Henry.

It doesn't seem like that long ago that you had the last one.

Congratulations Leon and family. The best thing about grandkids, (not that I have any, yet), is you get to spoil them rotten and don't have to feel guilty, because after all, thats what grandparents are for right?
