Well done the pair of you and welcome to the world young 'un.
But where did you get the name Zander from? Well, it's obvious I know.
He's going to grow up just like the man whose dad called him Sue - tough. He'll need it.

Congratulations Mr, Mrs Douglie,
Surely, you haven't called him Zander, tell me your fibbing

No joking spiders- He IS called Zander
Woody has it about right- he might need to be tough in the playground but he'll survive. I did.
Zander's grandfather is christened Zog so he's not the first ZZ.
I am now off out the front of house to try and catch a few zeds in hounour of the boy- the severn is nice and coloured which means I might just wangle one out in daylight.

Congratulations to you and your wife Dougal, I'd be more than happy witha Chevin of that weight.
I hope you have better luck than I had in trying to get my son interested in fishing...his mothers influence I think.

Congratulations to you both Dougal. I must admit I thought it was a wind up when I saw the name Zander. I hope he never meets my little boy "Gudgeon"./forum/smilies/wink_smiley.gif
Thank you Thank you
I'll try and get him into fishing but its not the end of the world if he aint 'got the bug'. It might be his 2 year old sister who 'takes to the angle'.
We'll see- but one thing I'm sure of- he wont be barbel or carp fishing until he's put in hours and hours of searching in babbling brooks for stone loach and netted handsome sticklebacks and trapped minnows in a jar with a hole in the lid and all those little things that might lead to him one day holding a rod. (not one of mine though - he's not allowed near my tackle shed until he's 40!)
