great meme answers and it why not set it up as a fun monday.
You know, one day when I have time, I'm going to have to go back and read your archives to get everything about your family straight. How many daughters? How many grandkids? How many husbands? (heh heh, just kidding you about the last one there..! *wink*)
I just read your reply to Pea...frozen tag! Ha!
But I loved reading your answers to the marriage meme just now!
I also take Blogfriends on a walk through London/Croydon. I was there in August.
Sorry we missed connections when you were so close. Hope you enjoyed the visit with your new grandson!!
