Title: For the long term inmates of the forum

For those who can recall the start of this auspicious forum, you may remember one of the original Mods was Lawrence. I'm happy to say the poor chap became a grandfather yesterday to a grandson, Alexander.
I say 'poor chap' because it won't be too long before the babysitting becomes a reality ;D

If he's a proper grandfather, all birthday and Xmas presents for the next 5 years will of course feature a blue tank engine.. :D

I often think about Lawrence, loved his posts.
In particular as I walked past my raspberry patch yesterday I was reminded of the pruning tip he posted a few years ago, and one I follow diligently to this day, and it has resulted in us having a wonderful crop of raspberries every year since.
Please pass on my best wishes on becoming a grandfather.
