Congratulations.

Even though I know that he's wearing eye protectors ( my first had to have a go on the sunbed too ), I always think that it makes them look like Superhero Babies. Let's just hope that his Super Power isn't the ability to keep his parents awake.

All the best, Michael.

The most relevant things got this year were

A book, A loo with a view, a catalogue on loos with spectacular scenery to be looked at whilst your doing your business.

Top of Mount Fuji, there were loos in the guard towers on Alcatraz which still offered the guards virtually 360 degree views.
Even one built in a aquarium, where a male turtle likes watching the ladies. :eek:

Aha it has a website, http://www.looswithviews.com/

The other was some freeze dried Neopolitan icecream, quite bizarre stuff but quite nice, weighs less than 20 grams for a portion. But a 3.99quid a portion I don't think I'll be packing any soon.


Congratulations on the little guy. Does look like a baby Beast (X-Men) under those lights :D
 
;) Despite doing my best to avoid the commersialism of Xmas as I'm a midwinter celebrating nature lovin kind of guy, my little tribe gave me a little book of hedgerow food, cosy socks, a petzle headtorch, a 5 dvd box set of Tom Weir Weirs Way- which is amazing...and a Garmin Oregon 300 GPs with the complete topo DVD of GB. You know I keep telling them I'm happy if they are and thats the best present anyone can have but they do insist on these votive offerings! Bah humbug!

By the way fgyt...Congratulations...:beerchug:

See the Weir's Way films ? When you get a chance to look at them, could you keep an eye open please ?
Do they have the Crovie / Gardenstown/ Gamrie Bay one in them ?
And, if so, is there a short sequence of Crovie pier with two wee boys on it ?
If it does, do you think I could maybe get a looksee or more info to acquire the right one myself ?
The wee boys are mine you see :D

cheers,
Toddy

FGYT, many congratulations on the arrival of the best kind of present :D
