Just looking through some OLD pictures and came across this one of my nanna with 2 of her yorkies. This picture is over 25 years old. My nanna always had yorkies all her life. She used to give them full chicken dinner and strawberries for their dinner.

The second picture is of me sat on my mums knee and if you look to the right another of my nannas yorkies Tammy is peeking round the deck chair. This picture was 22 years ago

I wish my nanna was still alive she would have loved to meet Smudger

They are great.I take it you are keeping up the family tradition of having yorkies LOL. They are addictive. I found some photos of my first yorkie,who passed away 14 years ago but I dont know how to get them on my computer!! But they did bring back a lot of memories for me.

Do you not have a scanner that's what I used. You could also try just taking a picture of the picture if you have a digital camera depending on what your flash is like. Mine is so bright it's impossible to see what the picture is of.

Yes I am carrying on the tradition. My mum and sisters still have a yorkie which my nanna bought 2 weeks before she found out she had cancer

I dont have a scanner but my dad has, so I might try that. I tried to take a photo with my camera but the old photos is so shiny that the flash keeps appearing and you cant see anything of the photo.Thanks for the info.
Our family is the same, my mum has a 13 year old yorkie and I have two, who are spolied rotten.The picture I found is of our Max ,who I got when I was 16,he was such a charachter.

Those are some awesome pictures!!

teri88 · 05-06-2006, 04:51 PM

I loved seeing this! I never knew my grandparents, so it's really neat that you have some memories of your nana!

fasteddie · 05-06-2006, 05:27 PM

Aww, those are great pictures! I'm sure your Nanna and her Yorkies left a lasting impression on you!

RLC12345678 · 05-06-2006, 05:44 PM

I love that you have a family tradition of having yorkies! That is kinda how our family is....my parents were the first ones in my family to get a yorkie...I was 15. Then my grandmother got a yorkie 1 month later, then my sister got one when she went to college, then my aunt got one, and then my husband and I got one when we got married, and now my husband and I are about to get another one!! When we get our new one in July, we will have 6 yorkies in our family! Whoo Hoo! I love these kind of family traditions!

We recently bought our first house a few streets away from where my nanna lived and it's so weird to be grown up and walkig MY yorkie around the same route I walked with my nannas yorkie as a child. I always point out her house to Smudger. I'm sure the neighbours must think I am crazy

But I don't care

Well when my nanna died my dad said I could have ALL the pictures from her house of her as a teenager (1950s), with her kids and me on holiday with her every year growing up.

I take really good care of them and love looking through them. I was very lucky to have been so close with her
