An ever-growing archive of bumbling nonsense from an English press photographer
New toy lacks manual
For the second time this week, I got to lay my eyes on a new toy heading my way. This time, I don’t get to touch it for another six months.. 
All is healthy and looking good with the little one putting on a fantastic burst of breakdancing for us as the scan took place. I was expecting some indistinct blob so to be greeted with this space-prawn doing the caterpillar move in glorious mono was quite a shock!
The poor woman doing the scan had to deal with two photographers asking her to wait for the right moment before capturing the scan images. All measurements were good with the date being logged as September 20th. Bring it on ( but not the sleepless nights..)
This child had better get used to posing as it doesn’t know what it’s in for..
Congratulations! Such wonderful news.
Cheers! I’m rather pleased!
Congrats once again, my liege!
Congratulations to both of you! I’m sure you’ll make a great Dad.
Hey, congratulations mate! Hope the pregnancy goes well…
That’s really great man, congrats!
Thanks all! I’ve decided that I now plan on going to bed at 8pm in preparation for the sleepless nights ahead..
Nice one Mrs Neal!
…and you Leon
Thankfully, I did have something to do with it.
A friend of mine is having a kid this week, at any moment in fact, and it’s been fun watching him gradually devolve over the months into a mumbling hunched over wreck.
But I know from experience that as soon as the baby arrives nature will give him a swift kick up the arse and all the neurosis and doubt will be replaced by Nietzsche-ish feelings of empowerment.
hehe yeah, I’m predicting a rollercoaster ahead but I guess there’s a reason people queue up for them (rollercoasters, not babies..)
Congratulations to you both. Exciting times ahead.
Congratulations. I’m expecting one in two weeks. My little critter might affect my expected coverage of South Africa’s most interesting election since 1994… but, ah, priorities. Obviously, you’ll be experiencing something similar soon
All jokes aside, it’s a great feeling. Cheers.
