Hi, Rusty!
I expect your son will still be with you...?
Now...I have looked up the May /hawthorn tree, and the Woodland Trust assures me that "the May-tree, due to its flowering period, it is the only British plant named after the month in which it blooms."
Obvious, I suppose, when one thinks about it....!
I can only remember one grandmother - on my mother's side of the family.
I think my paternal grandmother died well before I was born.
And I only have a dim memory of my paternal grandfather, as he died when I was very young.
My mother's parents though, figured quite prominently in my life until I was into double figures.
I guess generally speaking grandparents live longer these days - as this is us, and our generation, let us hope so anyway!
Now, we haven't had dinner yet.......I must go and check on its progress......
