    Red face Gone into labour.

    Blimey I'm doomed to get properly shooting.

    All set up and ready to go this morning. Eager to get practice in, and wham bam 5.30 this morning the ambulance arrives as me wife goes into labour.

    Cracking excuse not to have shot today, But please, they've sent us home now because it's fizzled to a halt!

    Oh well, I'm going to get a bit of kip while the baby decides to really get going! Then i might have to have a play in the loft again. (Shooting - Shooting! Cor blimey.)

    Oh well. Fingers crossed that this doesn't go on for days and days and days!

    Cool Poor Woman!

    The woman is in labour, goes to the hospital and is sent home, and all you guys can think of is AIRGUNS and SHOOTING??? When I was in labour with my first, my doctor made me walk around the hospital for an hour because I wasn't far enough along! It is very hard to walk while in labour pains - kind of like walking with your jewels in a vise grip.

    Ta everyone.

    Yup I agree that seth is a cracking name. He's a cracking boy! And Yes! I am biased.

    We even had a whole 4 hours sleep last night too. But that is good because we have now been told to wake him up every couple of hours! Bummer!

    Never mind my little family is worth it. His two year old sister adores him too.

    I can't wait to get em shooting and fishing!

    Well done, making and having a child is a joint thing.
    But do not forget, once you are done with all that and you want to keep on interrupted shooting then the snip is the only way to go..
    Think about it.

    Ha, I did and have been shooting for 28 years--no interruptions.

    I am a grandad now.....
