They grow-up so quickly.





This young man is now 18 (Happy Birthday Ollie). He happens to be one of my six grandsons.

Here he is, pretending to be a gourmet, but I'm not sure if the Spaghetti is going in or coming out. Anyway; he was obviously enjoying himself.

Needless to say, he is now a strapping young man, who probably eats his Spaghetti with more alure and finesse than in the photo.

His Papa has taken him off to Rome for a birthday prezzie weekend. More Spaghetti no doubt, and hopefully a better pair of shades!

Divertiti!

He has obviously always been a classy young man

With impeccable manners!

May I make a blogpost request? I would like to see a Magnon family tree as I get confused about who is who and who spawned your six grandsons and where they live etc..
P.S. Ollie's vulgar eating habits must have been genetically driven.

My three children have two boys each. Two live in the UK, two in Thailand, and two in Oz. Interpol doesn't allow me to give more details than that.

Drat! My cunning plan has been foiled. The ransom money would have boosted my retirement savings.

Happy Birthday to the fine young man. That is a great photo of a child being a child.

Cro Magnon said...

Never mind; Reeves would have taken them anyway!

Cro Magnon said...

You mean 'a BOY being a BOY', no young ladies would eat like that!

As long as he enjoyed it, that's all that mattered. I expect he's refined his fork-work!

Cro Magnon said...

I hope so. His previous style wouldn't go down too well in Rome.

Ollie loves his pasta. Rome sounds perfect for celebrating his 18th. Cheers to Ollie.

Happy birthday Ollie. 18 year old boys eat so much. Bet he'll love Rome! Authentic pizza and all the trimmings

Cro Magnon said...

He's a gourmet, like his Dad. Rome is perfect for him.

Cro Magnon said...

Next year I'll suggest that he and his brother go to Poros. They'd love it.

local alien said...

They'd never want to leave !

Cro Magnon said...

In which case I'd better come with them!
