Both my grandfathers had a wealth of knowledge to pass on to my brother and I...we remember them fondly for their wisdom !

I always try to spend time with those older than myself to learn whatever I can.

I don't remember my grandparents from my dads side,on my mums I was too young to remember any wise words before he died,my nan however I just remember her cooking/baking with a cigarette in her mouth that never ran out 😂😂😂😂 we must all have eaten so much ash!! Oldies are always worth listening to though unless it's moaning! I don't know who will listen to me as my two kids tell me I'm full of all the stuff nobody needs to know 😳😳

I must admit during my service days in Berlin and other parts of Germany I met some very interesting WWII German veterans who always showed great interest in the modern equipment and had lots of interesting stories,not one came across as being upset that we were there, well I tell a lie in one part of Germany they didn't like us there at all!!
