Wyndham Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 Some of the lines in that piece are brilliant.... "A grandpa is a man granny" "Usually they are fat but not too fat to tie childrens shoes" Anyway, none apply to Mrs W as she's a Nanny, a subtle but distinct difference so I'm told. Grannys are old.....Nannys are not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroadAmbition Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 To add to that my MrsG is neither a Granny or a Nanny, - Nope she is most definitely a 'Nanna' and is loving being one too Nanna - It's somewhat to do wi being from Jockland so I am informed Griff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minifer Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 I'm exactly that (well maybe not the fat bit)! I could not have kids, but I am a Granny due to my lovely stepdaughter having children, and so as not to confuse with Nanna (who is my mother in law) or Mormor (who is the Danish granny, my stepdaughter's mum) I am Granny and I love it. The more grannies and nannas the better! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
