There you are, kids finally off your hands. You knew it was too good to be true, didn't you? Your peace and quiet is about to be shattered once more, and the world has changed since you had little ones of your own - you may now have to read bedtime stories from an e-book, buy designer babygrows and whisk them off to Greenland instead of your local department store to see Father Christmas. Then there are the food allergies, politically correct nativity plays, playground politics and party-bag competitiveness...welcome to grandparenting twenty-first-century style! AUTHOR: Clive Whichelow is a journalist and comedy writer. He has written for Rory Bremner, Jonathan Ross, Spitting Image and many others as well as for The Mail on Sunday, the Daily Express and the Daily Mirror.
