patsylabrador Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 I'm going to be a grandmother. It'll be a bit long distance. I've got a flight for around the time, I wanted to be there but it's not predictable so I might miss seeing the baby. We're going over next year together anyway so we'll see the baby then for sure. 新しい赤ちゃん..... New baby, but there are sentence particles missing. My Japanese is quite patchy still. おばあさん might mean grandma or it might not! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patricia W Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 Congratulations! Long distance grandparenting isn’t easy but with Skype etc is doable. We’re expecting our 8th grandchild in January. Thankfully this one is UK based! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patsylabrador Posted July 20, 2018 Author Share Posted July 20, 2018 Thanks. Yes. They're pretty settled in a remote area and I can't see them leaving that by choice. It's all volcanoes and wild seas and unusual wildlife and sounds amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just thinking that exact same thing when I saw MH's reply! I thought there'd been a gas leak. lol On 20/07/2018 at 2:02 PM, Cat tails said: The missing is a favourite with me too! Together with Happy Valley and Broadchurch. The Frankenstein Chronicles is also very good. And something completely different but still very good: Altered Carbon I loved Altered Carbon... but then I do have a bit of a 'thing' for the guy who played the main character. lol Who is a Mod here? @Olly - Can you merge MH's, CT's, and my own replies about TV shows back in to the Handmaid's Tale thread? I'm not sure what has happened, but I think the board may have had a few too many Pimm's in the sun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
