aliceBB Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Was your nan from Glasgow amberleaf? No, he is the gran/dad! And he wasn't joking. Believes in letting kids run wild, doing exactly what they want, not disciplining them. Leading the way for the me, me, me generation....see what he says in the thread on children in cafes and resaturants! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JOHN HABS Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Back in the old days ( mid 50's - 60's ) if my gran saw any couple kissing in the street, she would say ' Makes you spew up What you've never eten ' ( eten as in eaten ). When I was a kid and she saw me climbing high walls, she would shout out at me: ' If you fall and break your leg, don't come running to me ' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
