If the kids didn't like staying with grandad, or grandad couldn't have them...we would have had a different kind of holiday. A FAMILY one where focus is on the kids.

I would not feel comfortable dropping them off with total strangers either. Jeez Luke cried every single day when i dropped him to nursery school when he was 3, it broke my heart leaving him there
