In which our hero apologises for a lack of new posts recently but feels he has a good reason for this slight hiatus. 8lb 3oz of good reason in fact…

As you can probably guess from the foot above I am now a father to a beautiful baby boy. Actually, thinking about it, I probably didn’t really need to use the word baby in the last sentence, I guess it was fairly obvious.

This means that:

a) I’m really, really, really, tired but really, really, really happy.

b) I have a new willing (or more accurately, unaware) subject for photo opportunities.

But this also means that:

c) My availability to regularly post on my blogs is, for the best possible reason, rather curtailed for the immediate future.

f) Sleep deprivation has removed my ability to use the alphabet properly.

As such this is a bit of an apology if, for a while, L,G&E appears to be updated in fits and starts with long periods where the cobwebs gather. I certainly want to try and keep some momentum going, and there’s a fair few draft posts half-finished along with some unwritten ideas clattering around my head. As and when the opportunity presents itself I’ll get these finished off, polished and put up.

In the meantime, I’ve got a small human to cuddle…
