My dad has now emailed me a picture. Allow me to introduce...
Ewan Geoffrey Scott, born 12:45 on the 30th of December 2008.




A ray of sunshine on what otherwise was, for me, a rubbish day.

Edit: I've also figured out what this picture reminds me of. "A frickin' 'laser'".

Congratulations!
It is now your sacred duty to teach him about explosives, blowing stuff up, and shooting at things with paintball guns. Maybe you could buy him this:

I was thinking this could be a b3ta community child where we all take responsibility for teaching the young 'un.

If this turns out to be the case
I can imagine the child being taken into care very, very swiftly.

"A frickin' laser". That just caused me to expurge a little water...

Funny you should say that
Both his parents teach piano!
(Generator cannot be named for legal reasons, Wed 31 Dec 2008, 6:22, closed)

he's obviously a little b3tan -
pointing with one hand, holding his fingers not very far apart with the other -

"oi you - your cock's this big."

I love other people's babies.

Is it the camera angle or does he have quite large hands?

Congratulations!
Enjoy being a big brother - it won't last long, before you know it he'll be a hulking teenager with smelly feet.

Actually
I've already got one that's just grown out of that phase!

Given that my younger brother is 6'4 and built like the proverbial concrete toilet, and Ewan's mum is taller than I am, it's starting to look like I won't be the second-tallest for very long :)
