Nana and Papa

When Willow, our Granddaughter plays with the Duplo, these are her favourite two pieces.

We say it is Nana and Papa (Jane and I).

When we open the Duplo box, she goes rummaging inside it to find us !


Does Papa look like me? Grey hair ...yes, glasses ...yes, Dicky Bow ...it's quite some time since i wore a bow tie.

As for Jane, yellow top and red bottoms, isn't a colour combo she would wear. Grey hair? I don't know her real hair colour, as when she goes to the hairdresser, she always has it coloured.

Nice photo though and I have a nice smile and wave for my friends on 365 !

A very smart Papa! As for Jane’s hair colour, like most ladies, a secret shared only with her hairdresser ! 🤔

Papa looks debonair and Nana looks lovely.

How cute is that! Great narrative. Most grandparents go through this, I would say. Enjoy it while it last because they grow very quickly.

@newbank newbank , I think they were part of a Duplo train set , passengers , dog, luggage, but I may be wrong . I will have to take a peek when I next go in the loft . We only brought one box of bricks and two people down .
