For all those wondering where in the Realms of Chaos yours truly has been for the past month (I note none of you sent search parties...) let me tell you that for once I have, what is known in my line of work as, 'a Lawful Excuse'.
I had been busying myself with the final preparations for a very important arrival up until yesterday morning and at 09:41 Hrs GMT, after bravely battling through much adversity and enduring all the Apothecaries could throw at her; the Good Lady Bix brought our VIP safely into the world.
A Baby Girl, late by 8 days (gets that from her Dad) and absolutely beautiful (most definitely her Mum) weighing in at a none too shabby 8 lbs 6 ounces; we have named our little ray of light Inara Jade.
So I may be offline for a tad longer, I sure as sure need to find where my last three nights sleep have run off to (I know, 'Get used to it!', I hear all the parents amongst the readership shout). But the Forge still stands, acting as a refuge to flee back to the Hobby when nappy changes threaten to damage my calm; so with luck I'll be back here on The Edge soon.
As always, thanks to all of you who take the time to drop by.

That's great news!
Congratulations on your MiniBix, cool name you've given her. Take good care of little Inara Jade, Lady Bix and yourself.
Very happy for you mate!
Congratulations, all the best wishes to you, Mum and baby lnara . Nap when they nap.
Thank you all for the kind comments & well wishes. My life has become a sleepless blur of nappy changes (maybe this is what it is like to be lost in the Warp).
But even in the moments when I'm clearing up concoctions that would shame Nurgle and getting kicked in the chest by tiny feet that have no right being that powerful; I'm totally overjoyed and beholden to our gorgeous baby girl.
So to the many of you who had already earned life's Legendary Difficulty achievement I salute you, toughest but most awesome path of life I've ever embarked upon.
You'll love it all and never look back: hearty congratulations, Bix and Family!
Oh, and thank you for your own kind thoughts and comments.
Now, stop reading this and get some kip!
Many thanks Drax & you are welcome.
Ah to sleep, perchance to dream...I will try, but I think it may be out of my hands for the foreseeable!
