Good point Ken , you got him by the short and curlies on that front.

He has been on hot stand by for days Big Grin The  other day we had a surreal discussion about Brakeman Hicks someting or other. Any way labour commenced at 6 o clock our time. Can just imagine him pacing up and down the waiting area scowling at every one Big Grin Big Grin

Give him another couple of hours.  Then I could see him going in and pulling the baby out himself, then handing it to the doctor.  Scared

Almost Congratulations to you Almost Grandpa Guy!

The tools in my truck were talking the other day.  The Dewalts, PC's, Boschs, Makitas were not happy.  They also were in the minority.  Their complaint:  They felt unused and unappreciated since the Festools moved in.  I guess the truth hurts.

Congratulations to the New Mum, Guy and family, great news. Smile

Are we going to see a plethora of grandchild inspired projects like those Frank Pellow brilliantly produces?

Hi Everyone and thanks for all the comments,

Here she is Rosanna, 7lb 8oz of pure perfection  Grin Grin Grin



As John and Alan have pointed out I am not known for my sensitivity and am a little uncomfortable with gushing emotion but wow what a feeling, and I couldn't be more proud of her and her Mum, and yes a little dewy eyed when I first held her.

Dont worry John, Alan & Ken, just a temporary blip, I will resume our communications with my usual trademark of blunt subtlety! Mad

I was not aware of this side of you Guy. Big Grin Perhaps the subtlety was lost on my warped personality.
