Now I have 7 Grandchildren and suddenly feel like a proper Grandad. I probably need to take up pipe smoking and obtain a walking stick and a shed. I should be saying things like "I knew this internet thing when it was all fields you know" and "get off those cabbages you little whippersnapper!".

Well done, Rog. Just delighted for you. Congratulations all round. As far as I know Niamh means hallowed or saintly, but I hope canonisation doesn't mean she came into the world with too much of a bang. Champagne in your new shed?
Congratulations. She is beautiful.
You mean you don't have a walking stick and a shed? I do not believe it!
Lovely news, and congratulations to all. I know what you mean, with latest news of another grandchild on the way I feel quite matriarchal. By the time I've got seven of them, maybe my children will stop treating me like the village idiot, but I'm not holding my breath.
This is mhery good news indeed.
Marvellous. You must be the hippest Grandpops around Rog.
Aw congratulations to you and Holly! Little face... I love that look, that "what the hell is going on?" look.
Congratualations!

Congratulations and best wishes to all, sugar! xoxoxo
by the by, added you to my blogroll because i don't always remember to look at the reader feed! xoxox
I thank you all. Particularly for the "hippest Grandpops around" comment!
SEVEN grandchildren and no shed? What are you thinking of?
Many congratulations & season's greetings!
Congratulations!! Werthers Originals all round!!
Lovely -- and two-legged, I hope? ;)
Skin taken off the old Granpa, as we can see. (But "Granpa" has changed quite a bit, judging by the photo. Sigh. That's what I get for not keeping up with my blogfriends -- I turn away for a moment and they get younger. Drats.)
Anyway, wishing you, Rog, and yours -- bi- and quadrupeds -- a happy and healthy new year.
Congratulations my dear.
A proper grandad.
Check you.
Congratulations!
Congratulations from me too, Rog.
You might wish to get hold of a rocking chair and a cardigan, and a four-wheeled shopping trolley also, all of which would enhance your image.
