Very true Aitch, at least with my offspring. I don't suppose you know where I could get one of those phones?.

Re: Does this stike a chord with anyone

Jemflux, put your own on, my phone has caller display on and when I see its the grandkids calling, I sometimes pick up the phone and say you are through to the lost cats and dogs home, or something just as daft, I usually hear a splutter and then, "grandad behave yourself we know its you" but it always lightens the moment., and Maryl, I bet 75% of the people on here have gone down the same path, its all part of life, and I wouldnt have it any other way.

Nor would I aitch, exhausting as it is! Add onto that list:
Can you look after Dizzy the dog for a week or more?
Can you look after Binko the cat while you're at it?
Can you bring me a can of petrol, I've run out again?
Can you look at the car, it's making a funny noise?

Want me to go on?
