I'm a Grandad...

[Workingman]

... as from 22:19 on this day for the very first time.

Welcome to the world the very beautiful 'little' one at 4.2kg (9lb 2oz). She has a lot of Irish heritage from both sides of her family so "Sláinte!"

I have just opened a bottle of Bushmills, so if my posts get a bit slurred later on you know why.
