Knock me over with a feather.

I’ve just learned that my much younger godbrother Iain, of Kilmacolm in Scotland, is the proud father of a baby girl. Jesus fucking Christ on a pogo stick with bouncy exercise shoes. According to my mum in an e-mail to Iain’s dad:

He has beaten my 2 girls to parenthood.

And he is very welcome to that title, thank you very much.

Congratulations Iain — you guys sure know how to shock a girl.
