Happy families

Congratulations to Lisa and Paul, and a cheery hello to Benjamin Wakefield, born in the early hours of yesterday morning.

If Paul - author of 1000 Shades Of Grey and my other half over there - thought he'd done his bit nine and a half months ago, he was sorely mistaken, having to pitch in to help with the delivery when Lisa went into labour at home. By the time the ambulance arrived, it was all over, Paul having shown a safe pair of hands on catching duty...

Chuffed to bits doesn't come close to how he sounded on the phone - and well he might be.
