Well,



The newest member of the land rover franternity is here. my new twin cylinder 18" chassis scraper is here. It appears to have occasional leakage though, oh, and theres no silencer!



We're going to name it Spencer Maurice Wilks Crowhurst.



Mrs Dave is still recovering.



Dave (happy but tired Dad!)



Congratulations I gather a tailpipe was ready fitted then . Derek

Woo hoo! Congratulations to the three of you.

Looking forward to lots of 3am posts from here on...

Congrats.

If Dave gets the right deal he won't be up at 3am, That's feeding he can't do that. Feeding of our two was *strictly* Sue's domain, she has the bits I don't. The down side was that I did most of the nappies, small price to pay for relatively unbroken sleep though. B-)

Yey!! , Big congrats!

You are about to discover two of lifes little mysteries... Tarmac poo closely followed by Yellow poo.. if nothing else it'll stop you biteing your nails ;-)

Don't worry.. you should get some sleep between about 3 and 12, I understand sleepless nights start again from 14 though so make the most of it while you can.

both ends? yes we have some of those.

and no 'off' button either although you'll find they sometimes go into silent running mode with no warning - just to scare you I think.

Congrats to both of you.

"you should get some sleep between about 3 and 12"........... do you mean between 3am -and 12am or ages 3-12??!!

only joking about the name. Turned out to be a little girl, which should at least mean that my tools shouldn't dissapear like MY fathers did as I got older, my only concern now is another type of "tool" calling around in the teenage years. As you can see, i'm a little protective, no-one warned me of the irrestible protective feeling you have over them. Never picked a baby up before yesterday, now I don't ever want to let her go, daft innit! I think i'm a bit tired and emotional!

Many thanks to all for words of encouragement also, i'm just off out to sabotage the in-laws car so she has t ocome home in the Range Rover, only the best for my little 'un!

TTFN

Dave

Is it leaking 'oil' yet??

Congratulations!

We might be going on a summer holiday, the Greece Ball rally!!!!

Starts off like that, but then the coven gets together and tells new mum about expressing milk, so Dad can get up in the small hours to bond with his child....

Not that I'm bitter.

I wouldn't count on that in these days of equality and all, besides which do you want her to help (as in hinder....) with your RR or not? ;-)

Congrats to you both! Gizza ring when you're accepting visitors and we'll buzz round and drink your cellar dry. Di has got the minature socket set and spanners already wrapped.

A girl, eh? Landia? Seriesia? Defendette?

Actually, if you're combining surnames, anything beginning with R would make a good combo.

Sow the seed that expressing milk is very difficult, can be frustrating which reduces lactation and not particulary comfortable so on the whole not really worth the trouble. B-)

I didn't think of that, seeing as my surname begins with "R" I need to think of a name that either starts in "L" or "R" don't i? You're dead right.

Just sent you an email which basically said that we'll give you a shout when we're a bit more lucid! Di doens't knit does she? Angs' aunt has just brought a cardigan round that nearly fits me!!

Well she seems to like the Rangie anyway, slept all the way home from the hospital.

She seems to have some very similar traits to the RR aswell, as in heavy fuel consumption, wallowly ride leaving a stain where she's parked, luv 'er

Dave

Right, now lets never speak of this "expressing" thing ever again....................

Louise is a nice ordinary name if you want to give the poor kid a chance.

although it does shorten to "Lou" which sounds like "loo". But kids will find some naff abbreviation for *any* name.

And parents will find the throughly embarassing ones ;-)
