My friend/fellow union rep is a brand new dad with a brand new daughter :smt007 .
He's ginger,she's Japanese so when it was confirmed she was pregnant his facebook page was ' The Ginger's having a Ninja'.
He's only just finished a house move and worked his ass off to get everything ready in time, now he thinks he can relax...
No ! No sleep for you for the next few years Mr Weasley !
Proper chuffed for him, even if he does not like bikes...

We found the first week or two to be fairly silent. Both mother and child knackered..lol. However, after that.. BOOM! :smt005
Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut that connects the handle bars to the saddle.

We were lucky, ours were pretty quiet, the problems start when they get an opinion later in life :smt005 :smt003
I hate it when people ask if you have a bathroom, I want to say "No we pee in the garden"

My first was a little angel, which wasn't very good preparation for the second one who yelled most of the time she was awake - and she didn't sleep much!

It's quite funny that nearly all of the new parents met up by chance at work this week, the conversation themes were ' OMG, how did we survive that first 6/12 months with no sleep ?'
OMG, how will I survive the next 6/12 months with no sleep?
They all looked very happy though !
Me ?
Dogs and cats and bikes and beer !

I'm screwed then he's only 3 and has plenty of opinions
For the avoidance of doubt and for the benefit of my wife, not everything I may say here will be absolutely true I may on ocassion embellish a little for effect.
That said when it comes to motorbikes, I like to ride side saddle with a nice frock
