Well, we're back from a lovely break in Bromsgrove, and a gorgeous birthday meal for my Mum in Wolves (if you are ever in Wolves, head to the Spring Hill - the food is amazing and the portions massive - hurrah!)
Whilst we were there, we sorted the naming of the grandparents. My side is relatively simple (pardon the pun!) - Nanny Shirley and Granddad Roger. However, I've had to have a few spelling lessons for Alex's side! Alex's mum is a nice and easy Grandma, but Alex's dad is Grancher, a sort of local Welsh equivalent to grandpa (the proper welsh for grandfather is tadcu -pronounced tadkey, which is what Alex and Ian used to call their Grandfather.) As Dylan is fortunate to have a great grandmother, Alex's Mamgu (pronounced Mam-gee, welsh for grandmother) becomes Mamgu Mawr (mawr meaning great.)
I better get learning those spellings!
