I am blogging from Europe's snowy wastes in sub-zero temperatures and my adored granddaughter is sucking her thumb a thousand miles away. I havent't seen her for a couple of weeks now and I am getting edgy about it. I have another 10 days here in the frozen north, a blog to write and no muse :-) But wait! What logo in yonder laptop stands? It is the baby blue of Skype and it is chirping at me. A couple of clicks and - Gevult! She is there (in full screen mode) shaking her rattle at me. Am I dreaming? What a boon to Zaydes the world over, live video of your grandchild brought to your very own computer scree FOR FREE! And boy, I would have paid good money to see that little face smiling at me. "It's yoir Zayde!" I shouted down the microphone, a smile of recognition, a gurgle and seizing my moment I clicked 'take snapshot' and there she was on my desktop! Amazing, I really don't know who is a better friend to Zaydes, Mr Skype or Mr Google.
My shiksa girlfriend - who is Scandinavian - asked me to mention to my followers that there is a great website out there called www.scandimatch.com that lets british zaydes (and younger) to meet Scandinavian shiksa babes at a very good price. All her friends are on there trying to get their own Solly. Women are competitive that way.
