Chris, we do get on well - so much so, it scares her mum (my daughter) :-D

Joy Louise, the wedding pics from both my daughters' weddings certainly don't do me justice - well to my mind, anyway!! :-( a) I'm not THAT old am I? and b) I'm not THAT rotund am I?

Ooh, Maggie, the official photographer at our daughter's wedding (many moons ago now) took the worst photographs of me that I've ever seen. Everyone else seemed to be posed nicely and looking fine while shots of me seemed to be taken too candidly and made me look another ten years older at least!

So, you see, there's no hope for me now :-D

At our son's wedding (even earlier) I did at least manage to look half-way decent. :-)

She is teasing you but loves you - whereas mine aged about 9 asked me very seriously in front of her mother 'Grandma why is your face dropping?'.

It is a miracle she has reaced 29 yrs.

But, why does she take the most awful pics of me and send them to me (privately) on Facebook?
I've tried desperately to find awful pics of her - but I cant!! :-(

New year resolution - take awful pics of the 13 year old Button!! :-D :-D


Edit: example on the left. Me being 'au naturelle'.
