Thanks everyone. Will post some pics up in a bit (separate WIP thread so you can give it a wide berth (pun most definitely intended) matt)

Just need to head down the launderette to get the bedding cleaned after the waters breaking all over the bed, or as it will forever be known at Trimble Towers, The Deluge!

Lucky for mattress toppers and bed pads or it would be a new mattress shopping...

So, I've not been down 'The Bendix' for probably 20 years. How much do they cost nowadays. Still about 20p-30p a wash I'm guessing...

Mark - nice one ccasion5: ...hope all is good - Rob

[Benchwayze]

Congratulations all around.

No need to worry about an alarm clock now.

Best of luck to you all.

Mark...this is what you do...

You go around the neighbourhood ladies and tell them of the good news (this is the pretext).....THEN you play the dumb man act...dropping the line about the bedding....

PRESTO...offers of maternal assistance flood in...you get tea and cake...JOB DONE...

(Well it's a better plan than looking daft down the laundrette with yer 20p in hand!)

:wink: 8)

Congratulations and best wishes, however the downside is the cost over the next twenty odd years. Best of luck.

Congratulations to the three of you :lol:

Start them as you mean them to go on; forget the Tellytubbies, get her onto a TV diet of Bob the builder, Norm reruns and Wood Wisperer podcasts

Funny you should day that. Only last weekend me and my little girl were watching our very own steve Maskery's Bandsaw DVD at 7:30 am on Sunday morning while drinking milk

Slowly brainwashing her

She does find something incredibly funny about Steve though, and points and laughs her head off every time there is a shot of him for any length of time

Perhaps a little too much info whilst I sit here with me sarnie and coffee.

Congrats to you and Mrs TTK though.

 

[Digit]

Congratulations to you both Mark, I know you've had a pretty rough time of late so a bit of extra good news won't go amiss I guess.

Just the 5 days late.

No such thing! The baby knows when it's ready.

Somethings can't be done in a domestic machine Moose, though convincing some ladies of that fact was oftimes difficult!

Haha, yeah, 2 in fact (don't ask me, I'm just the husband!!!), this was the mattress topper and duvet and they each only just about fit into the big machines down at the laundromat.

Maybe she is confusing him with Christopher Biggins another well known entertainer from the midlands with a flamboyant dress sense!

Steve :lol:

Funny you should say that. Only last weekend me and my little girl were watching our very own Steve Maskery's Bandsaw DVD at 7:30 am on Sunday morning while drinking milk

Isn't that child abuse?
