Granpa

He loves action,wit few words by example,his guidance heard, a barnabas,he unfolds encouragment,to be bold; Strong-minded,solid some say, stability,day-by-day, reliability,his creed to satisfy,family need; Each day stepping outside the box what you see,is what you get, once encountered,none forget, a boy,beneath it all aged now,but standing tall. Note :The name I'm proud to hold

I would add, you are a man of few words, the "strong silent type" as they used to say of John Wayne, but i don't see you as a cowboy. haha. Good win! Luv, Andrea

The boy is always lurking in the old man...good one Brian. My dad farmed at West Linton in the Pentland foothills as a young man. It was his dream to return there but he never made it....cheers Margaret
