One of these days in your travels, a guy is going to show you a brand-new deck of cards on which the seal is not yet broken. Then this guy is going to offer to bet you that he can make the jack of spades jump out of this brand-new deck of cards and squirt cider in your ear. But, son, do not accept this bet, because as sure as you stand there, you're going to wind up with an ear full of cider.

Well with both of us using straights I think Squid will be a straight user for sure.

LOL Thanks Doc, we will throw your name into the hat. Maybe we would run it alonside the "How Much Longer Can I Shave My Own Legs For?" contest!! We couldn't wait to share the news with everyone here, we have both developed an amazing bond and friendship with a good few here so it felt only right to pass the news on.

First SRP Baby??


Thanks everyone, we will keep you posted on how we are doing.

Ah well, bang goes your golfing practice for a few months Silver

Excellent news - couldn't happen to a nicer couple. My wee girl was so excited to see me off the plane yesterday - they are lovely things that bring out special emotions and bonds.

May the snake gods watch over you Silver and keep you in fine fettle too Spike, just like they did your little swimmers

Thank you Mike, you made me tear up for the first time. As soon as Squid is old enough he/she will be initiated into the fine art of the straight razor and the family at SRP. I'm looking forward to the day already.

Thanks Mark! Spike has also delivered in the past and one of our extended family is a Midwifery Lecturer who has already told me this one is hers and she won't think twice about battering anyone else who tries to muscle in! I'll have you on standby just in case though.

HA! Even we don't work that quickly Mark! LOL We had a feeling I was just before we went to Wolves for the weekend, but decided to leave a test until we came back. I enjoyed my last blowout for sure though. You understand the Guinness consumption was purely for the Iron though right?!

I am sad that Golf will be on hold for a while, but by next years Meet I should hopefully be enjoying a round or two. I've already told my parents they are squid sitting, whichever weekend Razorcon09 ends up being hehehhe. No doubt the Snake Gods are keeping an eye on us, thanks Steve.
