Thread continued from here

The usual rules apply. Non-rugby talk here. Consider this a social place, but like a pub, things like religion and politics can be divisive, so don't say things here you wouldn't say to someone's face in the pub. Sober

Is anyone else picturing MacKenna walking about in a velvet suit with a lot of jewellery, a cane and a hat with a feather?

First thing that came to mind.

So in news that's not corona-related, the awec family increased in size today, another girl to add to the mix.

Father of daughters, plural now. I think I'll be tapping up mfceiling for advice on coping mechanisms.

Congrats awec, hope ma and baby are well.

Also, the thought of you being stuck in the house with a newborn and another young kid has made the prospect of my own quarantine so much more easier.

In fairness, my 2 year old has started sleeping in til 9:30/10 in the morning and naps from 12-2:30 every day, then going to bed at 7 on the dot, so I can't even begin to complain about her.

Congratulations!

Has there been any word from a certain Aussie gimp from his pulpit about the likely cause of the virus? Any chance he's taking it as a sign god thinks hes an arse and is sending it to stop him playing till he cops on?

Or is God sending more cryptic messages that men are not allowed to like other men?

Dave_The_Sheep

Well that's some good news in this ocean of ****. Congrats Awec.

Had to read right until the end before I realised you weren't talking about Eddie Jones!

Famous last words my friend. Unless you’re planning strict abstinence?

(we went from 2 to 3 girls and the 3rd was a “surprise”)

NB: we have a male dog and of the guinea pigs is a male, so I have some support...

Oh and congrats!

sydthebeat

Congratulations awec!!

Did you name her Corona???

Rigor Mortis

Congratulations.
This whole situation has really shown me the benefit of having siblings. I'd say our little guys would be lost without each other.

Lovely to get some positive news at last. Congratulations Awec!

Congrats! Well done, awec. Was it stressful? I'm sure you're exhausted now. Put the feet up and relax. You've earned a rest.

Yup, pretty much. We get a few hours a day when we don't have to entertain them at all. Try to cram as much work into that period as possible.

I'm actually quite enjoying being at home with the kids and seeing much more of them. It's tiring but gotta look at the positives as much as possible.

It was boring. Very boring. Had to wait sitting in the car outside holles st from 8am-4:30pm.

He's an anti-vax, vegetarian, pro-lifer.

Sounds like spending all of those years playing music for middle aged cat women who spend too much time on social media has finally caught up with him.

With three kids bouncing on the bed while I "work" from home, that actually sounds awesome.

Congrats on the new arrival and delighted you got to be there for it.

Congratulations to you and the missus, glad it all went well. 3-1 I’d start encouraging your daughters to like rugby sharpish.

Great news awec!

I thought I was celebrating something last night alright. Now I know!

Cheers!

That actually doesn't sound that bad. Have a nap, listen to podcasts and ask Deliveroo to bring you food.

I got the softest labour ever. My wife had emergency surgery and was hospitalised for a week but I wasn't nearly as dramatic or attention seeking.

Congrats awec, at least you have the parental leave sorted!
