Thanks lads. I've hardly got a wink of sleep since Friday morning and I missed most of the Liverpool game yesterday but all is good.
Just to clarify we didn't call the baby Luis.!

Brilliant news Laoislad. Congratulations. Your original post struck a cord with me, I just didn't know what or how to respond but it stuck long in the memory.

I think that is true for a lot of us. Well said.

Was an incredible post. Congrats on the new baby sir

Good man, Laoislad. Very happy for the 4 of ye. Family life will be mad especially when sibling justice crops up- there is never enough of it and being the ref is worse than in Croke Park . But you wouldn't miss it.

Kevin Kilbane on Saturday night show talking of dealing with DS and the strain on the Mother. Brendan O'Connor has similar experience so interview was a bit more real than usual. Have DS on my side of the family and on the inlaw side. There was a great honesty in Kilbanes interview. He said he was ashamed that he was originally ashamed of Elsie. And you know from my exposure to this situatio that's the first feeling. But thankfully the mental goalpost shift and the realism is that this persons achievements mean more than anyone could imagine. Anyway forgive me, I'm a bit drunk and beginning to waffle.
