    Yesterday, I met a friend for a walk and then, we got a takeaway cup of tea from a local PUB and actually sat outside....at a patio table...in the sunshine and had ALL the chats....It was almost like old times :D:D:D

    Then we took the kids on an afternoon out and got drowned...nature's way of keeping me grounded :P

    So I’ve been keeping a secret….


    For the past 3 years myself and Mrs Loughc have been trying very hard to have a baby. We’ve unfortunately had to go through 2 full rounds of IVF and 2 embryo transfers later I can proudly now say we are 3 months pregnant.

    The best part of all this our baby is currently due Christmas Eve. Could not be a more perfect Christmas present.

    Someone up there is pulling for us :D

    This has made Christmas for me amazing again. I was went through a phase of disliking Christmas, I was young, broke, was working (and studying) in dunnes storeroom and hated the repeated songs. Becoming a dad/santa made it special again. I am now on my second round of being santa as my eldest is a non believer and my youngest is just getting it.

    I've just realised that this Christmas might be my last Santy Christmas. Youngest will turn 10 2 weeks after the big day. So next year will be almost 11 and will probably be past it. All his friends are youngest in their families too so odds are they'll be too knowledgeable.
    That's making me a little non cheerful.

    And put together everything well in advance. Damn john deere tractor nearly killed me (it was actually me not reading the instructions correctly but not what you need on Christmas eve)

    I think DvB will echo this
