Talking of emigation - i've just applied for my first passport! (at the age of 36!). I've decided to see more of the world before i get too old (plus i want to see someone who lives abroad). I've got to pay ?77.50 though!
I've just filled in the application form online.
Man, and I thought I was a late starter having never had one until age 25 :D
Even with having to get up at 3am most nights (i presume) changing dirty nappies i cant wait for time off ! Two weeks paternity leave (still not great) plus i've booked a week after that.
I'm on a horrible project at the moment so its great timing if the wife pops soon !!
I must admit, yep i'm a coward. I'm SOOOO glad i'm not a woman ! I couldnt go through it ! Poor wife is dreading it and it doesnt help with me saying 'cant be that bad, lots of women have another...' (Slap !)

Maybe you could just rustle up a bit ball of undercooked smash, I guess that's the closest we're gonna get to understanding labour pains..! :-o
Was there a retro show 9 months ago that both of you attended?....just sayin!
Ha ha you think i'm stupid and she snuck off with someone at the retro show for a bit of 'hows your father' ? Come on ! I'm not stupid !
Plus what youre suggesting is ridiculous, the wife wasnt at the retro show. She went on a hen week to Amsterdam with a few of her mates and got totally drunk all week, she also accidentally hurt her hip so when she came back she was walking like 'John Wayne'. She also got some really bad sun burn around the sides of her neck. Also she must have been bitten by a mosquito as she was scratching in 'particular' places a lot.
If the missus was cheating on me i would know, i'm not stupid ;)

No, nine months ago I was in Sanfransico with work while my wife stayed at home and cleaned the house ready for my return. So carried away with cleaning was she that the slipped down the stairs and the the mop handle poked her from behind. Like PSJ's wife she was walking kind of funny too.
just seen this email, my own work has actually sent me on a 1yr assignment to Portland OR, I'm staying in the city centre, 1 month in now and I must say it's a cool city. Weather has been good (was in the mid eighties all last week with blue skies).
Cost of living is cheaper (no state tax here), not sure if I'd like to be here for good but I could hack it for a year or so. Mind you my company have given me free apartment, car, living expenses, so it's bound to be sweet!!

I cant believe some people dont have a passport ! I'm not a huge traveller but have been to a fair few countries
