What's it like to be a father to two new children at 50? Will I cope with babies, sleepless nights and crying? Or will it be a dream - like time travelling back to another life when I had two new babies in my 20's? Let's find out!

Domestic Bliss
Don't you find that sometimes a day at work is like 1,000 years. It takes an age to do anything - from logging into the network, getting anyone on the telephone, or even getting a cuppa. Today is no exception with a choked M6 motorway, tedious discussions about which department pays for what and mind numbing e-mails to deal with. So it is always fantastic to come home to Helen and Rosie, cook them a nice tea and er wash-up!
Thanks you very much for your wonderful idea. Undoubtedly, greyer fathers are a social trend that is likely to grow as the UK population is ageing we are told. How valuable is experience in raising a child? Will a child raised in an environment such as yours be better equiped for the world than a child raised by "green" parents? Are there things you wouldn't dream of doing now that perhaps you did in the past?

Dear Older Father,
Thanks you very much for your wonderful idea. Undoubtedly, greyer fathers are a social trend that is likely to grow as the UK population is ageing we are told. How valuable is experience in raising a child? Will a child raised in an environment such as yours be better equiped for the world than a child raised by "green" parents? Are there things you wouldn't dream of doing now that perhaps you did in the past?
Best wishes to you and your family.
