At 20:26 this evening, a new person arrived into the world - myself and the missus (the lovely Bob) now have a baby girl!

Arriving in at 7lbs 6oz, daughter, mother, and myself are doing just great. We haven't got a name decided quite yet (it's been a big day), so for now "Gorgeous" is doing the job quite nicely. (Who'd have thought Bananas was a girl!)

Gratuitous numbers of photos to come, no doubt, but right now, I'm waay too busy being just completely over the moon!

Thanks James! So, brief glossary: "Bob" - short for Barbara, "missus" - 'cause she's my wife, "lovely", well - that speaks for itself I think! Autumn looks fabbo: I'm only just starting to get the father-thing myself (but I think I like it)

"Who'd have thought Bananas was a girl!" Me! I did. or at least guessed correctly with the consequence that Lydia owes me a bottle of wine and doesn't get a tub of luxury ice-cream :-) I'm realy looking forward to meeting the bundle of joy!

And here I thought Small-Foster was referring to a half-pint of Australian beer :-) Congrats, Tim, and I won't bug you with any test sponsor "opportunities" for a while.

Thanks all - I've passed your kind comments on to Bob, and she's got a smile a mile wide!
