Forgot the car keys, then forgot the car!

Thank you for reading my blog. If you have difficulty seeing your grandchildren, or have any views about my situation, I would welcome your messages by e-mail through this blog site. If you wish, just use a first name or a nickname and your identity will be protected, like mine – “Grandad Kit.”

Dear “Tom”

Forgot the car keys, then forgot the car!

I am you other grandfather, the one you have never met. You are three years old, and although I have never met you, I love you dearly and always will. You are my flesh and blood, and always will be. We will meet one day, I am sure. I am writing this daily "blog" to you to make up for the fact that I can't speak to you right now. I hope that one day you will be able to read this.

Grandad did two silly things today. Well, one silly thing can be forgiven, but two silly things???? The first was, when I said goodbye to Nana Ann and left the house to go back to our home in the North, I forgot my keys, my car keys and my house keys. So when I go back, I wouldn't have been able to drive the car, and I wouldn't have been able to get into the house. Fortunately I remembered very quyickly, wnet back to Nana Ann's house, and there she was waiting with the keys in her hand!

The when I had finished seeing the people I had to interview (inlcuding that very important man I told you about) a man I had been working with said he would give me a lift home in his car - all 250 miles. So I said thank you very much, and he brought me home in quite good time. It was only after that that I realised that my car wasn't there - it was still at Darlington railway station in the car park there. So tomorrow Grandad will have to go to Darlington, just to collect my car. And there'll be an extra day's parking fee to pay as well. Worst of all, Grandad is going to have to tell Nana Ann he's done two silly things in one day (and not just one).

Love from

Grandad Kit and Nana Ann
