QuoteI'm saying congrats because it's the nice non grumpy auld bollox thing to do . Or do you think that having a kids isn't important enough to say congratulations ? If so let me know what is ?

Of course he and the Mrs deserve congratulations - and who was the first one to offer congratulations on this thread?
It's the "well done" comments I am confused by.

Owe then Merry Christmas Grumpy

Take it from me, the woman has nine months to adjust...hormones, mood swings, weight gain etc

Whereas the da, well, he wakes up one morning and that's it he's a da. No time to adjust whatsoever.

Please God all goes well for you both. Mini-me is 6 and Santa is just the business. Feckin love the excitement as much as he does.

I know what you mean Aerlik. Me and the wife laid out all the gifts last night and although the kids are all but grown they love Christmas, it is the time of the year we do everything as a family. Work takes a back seat and we have a ton of other Irish and English people over who have been coming to the house for years and we have a slap up feed and the guitar breaks out and we have a hooley until about 1:00 in the morning. It is the best time of the year.

I know...my wee lad is 3, and yesterday was just pure magic. Santa did the whole show..footprints thrrough the house, magic dust, half eaten carrots. Loved it.

Santa Claus did well at our house when we were kids, dad decided that he would be sick of milk and so we (the three kids) left out a half'un of hennesy each!
