The other two live in the UK,an 8 year old with Autism and his little sister aged 6.

She is a very smart Cookie, frighteningly so.

They both want a dog, in particular a Bedlington, courtesy of Mups.

The 8 year old boy has started talking and making great progress since he saw the picture of Mups dog at the table.

Little sister is fiercely supportive of him, they both want a Bedlington.

Mum and Dad both work, so it is a problem.

They both want money for Christmas, but Nadi, the six year old wants her own way.

If I give them both cash, which is what they want, as they really want enough to buy a Bedlington, Mum and Dad will put any paper money in their Bank Accounts.

So, Nadia has asked for £20 in coins for both of them, so they can buy a Bedlington and keep it at my house, they can come everyday to play with it and walk it.

Outwitted by a six year old.



They're not daft are they Swimmy, then 'pretend' grandad will see to all the puppy feeds, and deal with the wees, poos, bathing, clipping, sleepless nights and veterinary fees.

Ar least that should keep you out of mischief for a while.

Re: Grandchildren Presents

I don't have any Grandkids, neither of my kids had them, neither are married, just as well perhaps as I don't really do children.

Re: Grandchildren Presents

That's what we're doing this year as we are out of the country. With 14 grandkids to buy for it's a much easier option too.

Re: Grandchildren Presents

I have just bought the three little grandchildren dressing gowns from John Lewis Last year it was duvet covers.
Best to get them early or the sizes go.
