Is it just me? Grannies who go on endlessly about their grandchildren.

Is it just me or are there other members on the board who get a little tired hearing about how marvellous other people's grandchildren are without any other conversation?

Someone once said "there's never been a cowboy quicker on the draw than grandparents whipping out photos of their grandchildren" in many cases this is true!

Well I don’t talk about children or grandchildren. The most I say is “they’re fine” if asked.

FindingNemo, Lathyrus and anyone else who needs a little hug and a bunch of flowers

I don’t have problem hearing about other peoples grandchildren for few mins it’s when they go on and on and on, yes most of us have them, but for me it’s the holiday snaps, they send me Zzzzzzz

Yes, holiday photos are much more boring than grandchildren,
