New arrival! #231394 01/15/2008 5:43 AM Joined: Jan 2005 Posts: 768 York, England Dai OP 3/4 Throttle OP Dai 3/4 Throttle Joined: Jan 2005 Posts: 768 York, England Hi folks, let me introduce you to Jack, ma boy! He was born last night after a fairly swift labour. Weighs 7 3/4 pounds, 52 cm and cute as a button! There were some minor complications that means Mandy and himself are going to have to stay in a couple of days, nothing serious thankfully. He’s the first child of my own, so it’s a really special time for me, thanks for letting me share it. Now I realise what all the fuss is about! Dave. Sometimes it takes a whole tank full of fuel before you think straight
