    So long standing members might recall I had a fairly awful 2014 (there's a thread somewhere) and it really stole my spark.

    This Christmas I'm happy to introduce a new spark - Bethany Annabelle Hills!

        Thanks Woo, I'm glad! She's adorable and apparently looks just like me poor thing.

        Not to do things simply we had to have a c-section on the 18th... The keen eyed will see it is only the 11th today. Emergency section 0400 of the 10th and out she popped. Poor Erica is in a mix of delighted rapture and agony with the operation.

        6lb 12ozs and so far no issues. It's great!

                EDIT:Forgot to mention Bethany Annabelle looks like one of the self-watering babies.
