Well folks about ten minutes ago, Mrs. C. went into labor. I will not be around for a day or two, so don’t you worry bout me a bit! If I can get a laptop and a webcam in there, well, I’ll probably get killed. Hell of a way to wake up, what with the water breaking and splashing me. Wooohoo. ---

Woohoo!!! All the best, Cynical, and my regards to the poor mrs. Cynical. Oh, she’ll let you know what REAL cynicism is in a few hours, mate… I’m putting some Guinness in the fridge - we’ll have a few tonight. I hope the kid takes after her mother though. I saw you pic at the SD Peoples Pages… talk about killing my appetite! ---

This thread illustrates what is so great about this board. Wife goes into labor, Mr. C’s first thought is to log on and tell us. That is the mark of a great board member. “C’mon honey, just keep squeezing through this contraction. I have to see if anything new has happened in the Pit.” ---

Yay! I hope it goes quick, once it really gets going (and for the uninitiated, one often has loads of time to send e-mails between the time you realize “this is it” and having to rush to hospital.) 🙂 ---
