So, to all of you out there, look after those wee things that one day a great grand child will enjoy and yes they really will smile and under their breath they will say, not often perhaps, "thanks grandad!"
Ramble on, my friend. I'd listen to your rambling (philosophizing) any day. I feel the same way when I use a tool or a rifle that was passed to me. I've said "thanks, granddad" many times. I wear his square and compass ring every day.
