Introducing!!
Well, I can tell you all now. I'm going to have a grand baby! And here it is - baby of my son and his partner - ultrasound done this afternoon. Baby is 20 weeks and due in early February.. I am very very very young to have a grand baby. So the hunt is on for a name for me that does not start with "Nan" or Gran"... prize for the best name (but I have to like it!)

Re: Introducing!!
I reckon Heather would do just fine.
God nearly died of shock
When I read the first bit !!! You could have just said I'm going to be a Granny !!!
There you are Granny, Yeah the more I think of it Granny fits the bill just right.
Granny Knight, If thats your real name.
Problem solvered.

Re: Introducing!!
Oh Heather such language !!!!!! 
Some time you are going to have to admit you are 45 and accept the consequences.
I really think Granny is a mark of respect. I can remember once my ex left a jumper at my daughters place after a visit and the kids rang up to say they knew it was Granies Jumper cause thay could smell her on it. Mothballs make a wonderful perfume.
The only other thing would be to make up one just for you. Kids find it easier to say things like Dadda so Deather would fit !!!
