Missed an Off Road day but worth it
« on: July 12, 2006, 01:47:45 »
I had the clock set this morning for a Land Rover Invitation Off Road Drive at Bala ina  Disco 3.
Woken Before the alarm went but still missed it; waht is worht that?

At 0500 I was woken because the wifes Waters Broke; at 2031 I became a daddy to a little baby girl.

My Dad went ont eh drive but I do think that this was one of the few things in life to justify missing it.

Congratulations.
Ring them and tell them why you missed it and promise to give her the middle name of "Discovery" :) .
They may be good to you and fit you in at a later date.
Take a tip from me, start putting £10 a week away now and then when your angel grows horns and wants you to pay for the wedding you may (if you are lucky) have about half the money saved :D

Thanks Guys

Hannah Jennifer (two grannies names)

Somehow she had two due dates; 10th & 12th; she managed to hit the one day which was a banker she would not go, right in the middle; a woman right on time!

Mind you when I start to recover I will write to LR and see if that can do anyhting

CONGRATULATIONS
I've got 3 kids and never missed one coming into the world (although the 3rd was a close thing)

You can go back to do the test drive etc but you'll never be able to see the bairn born again

My little one is 6 months and I still wonder where the time has gone.
Congratulations to you both and as you will discover, Days like that dont come very often and too soon they have flown the nest.
I love my 4x4s but love spending "dad" time with my little miracle.
