LAY (It says something about my vintage that so many of my memories are in black and white)

DOWN Happy days and Mr Young still touring.

UP

I went there a couple of years ago and it was a stunning holiday. I came back thinking if they could move Vietnam to about where Majorca is I'd go there every year. My worry is that some of the places are now being rapidly developed like Halong Bay and you need to get there before some of the beauty just has a background of high-rise apartments. 10 days in Vietnam or a ticket for Glastonbury? Now that would be a hard call.

Welcome all to the world of grand-parenting. The lovely thing is that you can have all the fun and then give them back at the end when you're exhausted. I've got my first nursery Christmas Concert later this month watching my twin grandson and granddaughter (aged 3) do their bits. Though I still remember having to comfort my younger daughter when she was about five when she was cast as the back end of a donkey. "I wouldn't have minded if I'd been the front end dad," she sobbed. Now she's in her thirties and trying for kids of her own.

Amazing the number of parties that seem to have a death wish over one issue or another.

AWAY One of the best live bands of its day.

APART

TOGETHER More Grumpy Gonners I'm afraid.
