Remembering my Grandad, its very odd writing his actual name as for almost my whole life he was Grandad Seafront. He was in the army as an odd job man, in those days he didn't have a posh title but he could do anything. Electrics mainly but he was good at everything he turned his hand too. I always remember when i was little his ability to fix things and to tidy things away, no matter size and shape, he was the original Tetris player. He was always smiling and always happy to help anyone.
