First off I want to apologise for not posting anything foe wooo erm a bit. Anyway as you might have guessed Boo has finally arrived. If you have been following my tweets on Twitter which you can do by clicking here and then selecting “Follow” (Get the hint?) anyway, it all happened on Tuesday just gone, I was at work when I got a call from my wife to tell me her waters had just gone and I should come home “NOW!” so I did, Thanks Z3r0 S0ldi3r for the lift I appreciate it (Now post something!) I get home and my wife is there with my Mother in law and brother in law, everything was going ok with my wife getting contractions about every 15 minutes or so these went one through the afternoon so my wife called the hospital who told her she needed to get there quickly so grabbing her baby bag we headed off, we got to North Teas hospital in a totally different town about 30 minutes or so and a journey down the A19 in mid evening rush hour the later and were given a room in the delivery suit.
We were told by the duty midwife we would not be leaving the room without our baby in our arms, My wifes contractions gradually getting closer together and stronger, 10 minutes, 7 minutes, 5, 4, 3, 20?? this went on through the night untill about 2:30 in the morning when she was finally given some pain relief. At about 8:30 or 9 or something in the morning a surgeon came into the room with a team of his minions in tow, looked at my wifes notes from the night and told her “Hmm Mrs World it seems you are not dilating and have not yet gone into full labour, may I suggest you get mobile and maybe it would come faster” (she had been walking and pacing the room from about 7pm or so until about 4 or 5 in the morning and had only just lay down to get some rest about two hours earlier, Dick) he went on to say “ We have three options here Mrs World, you can stay here and get mobile to try and bring on the contractions, you can go home and be mobile, maybe you could go shopping, you can use your husbands credit card. Or we can give you something to start your contractions off”. We chose to go home.
(Educational bit: Established labour. This is when the hospital say you “are” going to have your baby, you “are”in labour. You can be having contractions and they can be upto 5 minutes apart and the hospitals would still say no your not in established labour unless.. The normal pain killers they would give you Paracetamol, codeine are not giving you any pain relief or you are 4cm+ dilated, anything less and your gonna be waiting. There do you feel educated?)
Anywoo we were told we had to go back to the hospital at 4pm on Friday if Mrs World had not gone into labour (established) and she would be started off. 3pm friday came, at 3:30 we got a lift back down the A19 and were taken to the maternity ward to wait, cutting to the chaise my wife was started off at 7:33 PM, we were taken to the delivery suit at about 8:20 ish by a stereo typical Italian doctor not in a wheel chair or a lift, but told to follow him down the staff stairs to the next floor, my wife in established, bloody painful labour. We get to the delivery suit and Dr, Stereo type tells the duty midwife to get my wife a room FAST as she was a High risk patient! I was all WTF!! High risk? Moving on, at 11:33 exactly four hours later Baby Boo came into the word, just as news broke of the death of Michael Jackson. She weighed 7lb 10.5 oz, had brown eyes which are now blue eyes and dark hair. As is usual I have not posted a picture of her for the same reason I dont post any pictures of our other three. Sorry and all that. Tonight is her first night at home at the moment she is having a feed while my wife watches MIB II.
Watch this space as I, well we are expecting lots of late and sleepless nights.

Its my sons 10th birthday today, Yay I think he was a little bit excited about it being his birthday today, not that anyone would have noticed, had nothing at all to do with him still being awake at about 11 o’clock last night and awake again this morning at about 5:30 quietly making as much noise as he could so we would tell him to come down stairs so he didn’t wake his brothers up. The bad side of his birthday is that he has had to go to school today so he would have to wait until this afternoon before he could properly enjoy his day. Anyway Happy birthday Cal. We didn’t organise any big party or anything for him this year as he is going away for a week with the school in a couple of month which we know he will love, that and baby Boo is due any day now, yup she still has not made an appearance yet which in one way is a good thing because it means Cal gets his birthday to himself with no one else hogs his light and it gives me time to get our room finished. Saying that my wife is finding it hard doing almost everything now, we don’t think there is any more room inside for her to grow. Baby Boo is getting ready for the final push we think with pains and pressure over the last couple of days. So you need to hurry up Boo! On another note the building work that has been going on for most of the year now has spread into our street now. There are white boards up covering the building work in about a third of the street making it all feel very close and claustrophobic and horrible. They have dug a dirty long trench along the road past our local shops, closing off the footpath and forcing everyone to walk on the road.. Not good. Im not sure what to look forward to, the building work to finish so we can get out paths and street back or the low life’s that will be moving into the houses when they are all bought up by private land lords. What else? Erm not a lot really I get up at daft o’clock in the morning, go to my place of employment, come home and decorate. Still playing world of warcraft when I get a chance. Um that’s about it really. Oh there is one other thing, I have set my Gmail account up to send me a text when there is a calendar appointment coming up but the bugger keeps sending me texts every time a get an email which is all well and good but I don’t want to know every time I get a sodding email, I can check them when I am at home, think I will delete the account and check my calendar the old fashion way. I have 7 people following me on twitter woo I am popular, even have Hartlepool museum following me. No idea why, Im NOT THAT OLD. There woo a bit of a ranty post today, hehe. Happy 10th Birthday Cal!!!

Yet another post emailed in. Boo is due next week and the pressure is starting to show a bit on my wife, if you were to ignore the constant indegestion, the weight she is now carrying now, the back pain, not being able to find a comfortable place either sitting or lying down, the sickness, always being tired, the now regular trips to the loo, sleepless nights, not being able to bend down and the smell of most foods making her feel sick she is coping well.
We have been looking for ways to try and start her labour so we can have our daughter NOW! *Stamps his feet* yes I know there is the obvious but if you look at the first paragraph in this post do you realy think it is possible? Anywhoo she is walking almost everywhere now, drinking Raspberry tea, I think she is getting some Pineapple and some Cumin tea today, tried reflexology and massage of the pressure points all to no avail. She even spent about 30 minutes last night chassing Fate our dog up and down the living room to see if that helped, but no, nothing. We have bought everything we need except for the baby to fill them.
On a different note a couple of weeks ago I restarted my account on World of Warcraft and after messing on with various characters have created an Alliance character, bearing in mind I have never played Alliance it is like starting the game from day one again. On a brighter side though because I have a character over level 55 I can make a Death knight which starts at level 55, I made my Alliance death knight last night the sole reason is so he can feed my main alli character with money as well as running hiom through the lower lvl instances so I can get decent gear for him. Easy days with no worries about not being able to afford to pay for my training or my mount at level 30. Its like a whole new game.

Some might say that the girls on this fine planet we inhabit are equal to us mere men of the world. Men have debated this theory for centuries, now, here on Nosceres World I can finally give evidence that not only are girls and the women of Earth equal to men but in some cases superior. Yes boys, girls and those of you of mixed or no gender I said that in some areas women are superior to men
and I am not talking about the higher pain threshold they have or the fact that they can give birth and we cant.
Ladies and gentlemen of the jury I offer you my first and only piece of evidence in the area of superior mingingness, a state of mingingness that is far superior to any form of uncleanness ever attained by a member of the male human. The cup pictured to your left is not only owned by a member of the opposed gender but was and still is in use by a female I share an office with at my place of employment, as can be seen by the High School musical picture on the front of the cup this item is indeed a cup that belongs to a girl, those of you who doubt my words should not doubt any longer, as in a case as Haynes as this I have no reason to lie or deceive you, I have nothing to gain except the wrath of the accused when she finds out that her secret has not only been uncovered but laid bare for the eyes of the world to gaze upon in horror. Due to the nature of this post I have decided not to name the owner of said High school musical merchandise to protect her innocence and so as to not cause any undue impact on her personal and private life.
And to close I would like to ask those of you who are male in gender in any way, to refer your partner to the cup pictured here in this post as proof that girls and women can and have attained a state of uncleanliness that is far in excess to the uncleanliness you have attained with the pants you have not changed in the last five days.
I rest my case.
