Well, at last, the longest wait is over. Kathryn had a baby boy at around 1pm today. Weighing in at 8lbs 13oz, he was not about to give up his lodgings easily and took quite some persuasion to come out. But come out he did, and I am now officially Uncle Richard in my own right (I inheritted lots of nephews & neices when I married Lisa!)....and a very proud Uncle I am. Unfortunately, making decisions is not something Kathryn and Sam have ever been good at, and this extends to chosing a name...up until 3 weeks ago they have a "shortlist" of 16 names for boys - and as I write they have still not decided. Hmmmm.....must have words I think! Needless to say I am overjoyed. They have waited so long for this to happen and I'm just totally thrilled now it has. The trouble now is finding the time to go down to see them (they live near Bedford). Going away on the 7th means there's not much time for me to see them all, so it could be a quick dash down next week. Hopefully they'll have a name by then!
And the wait was also finally over for my car - picked it up today at last - a Citroen Xsara Picasso. Just right for all the kids and very nice to be back in an MPV again.
Still no more details of my job however, but hopefully that will come on Monday.
