Hope your boy's home and safe Ek and hope mum and dad are fairing well too.

He is now thanks mate, it’s like it never happened to him. Tough little fellow! Four weeks old now and still technically a week from arriving

Everyone is doing well, mum is amazing and my daughter is fascinated by her little brother

[keasy]

Good to hear man. I'm so out of touch with you fellas that I didn't even realise you already had a daughter.

It's always that bit extra special for a parent to have the additional bonus of watching their firstborn fall in love with their second.
It had never occurred to me when my two were just little how much the eldest had bonded with his little brother. New baby/son no.2 was having his first jags, son no.1 was hardly even stringing legible sounds together, never mind talking. But, when the nurse jagged his wee brother....holy feckin shit, words would never have described it anyway! His face was a picture....like....WTF have you, just done to my little brother?! I'm gonna fucking do you bitch!
Priceless man, I knew there and then their blood was thicker than water.

I love that, sounds amazing. My daughter is nearly 10months old now and her brother 1month today, so I’m hoping having them close in age will be really nice as they grow up together, even if my daughter doesn’t live with me. Weekends are fun with two under a year old right now!

Glad your son is doing well Ekona!!

How has everyone else been?

Fricking Covid has been a buzzkill

I'll wear a mask inside indoor public places but outside seems fairly safe. I've never had to wear a mask at work and not worn one when driving in my car (I've seen people drive with a mask and they are the only occupants with the windows up)

My sister shares all sorts of "plandemic" posts.
The Governments advice isnt that clear sometimes but to post stuff about mandatory vaccines, 5G, Bill Gates is a bit loony toons.

On a more exciting level me and the missus are engaged!!
all the wedding stuff next, househunting etc.... proper adult stuff!!

[Ekona]

Congrats mate, really pleased for you both when’s the wedding going to be?

How's everybody getting on with lockdown 2.0?

[RB]

I'm sick of it. I think we should just have a mass cuddle and get it done with. And I say that as someone who's been in intensive care on a ventilator and would likely not survive a bout of Covid.

[Ekona]

Still the same to me, zero difference. Although we now have to wear masks indoors at the prison, which is irritating as fuck.
