WRS, as a late December baby I have strong views on this.

Oh, and congrats, crack open a few extra bottles of bubbly this Christmas. You could even save a bottle to give to the grandchild in 18 years time.

I am 3rd jan and my mother is 26th Dec. We are also accutely aware of this as well. It is surprising how many people think they have gotten away with it but we know!!!

BTW Scrag, get yourself down to Tiffany's or something like that and get her one of the charm bracelets and a first charm for her birth. You can add to it as she reaches milestones and then give it her on her 18th. It's not cheap but a lifelong keepsake. Well worth it IMO.

Remember, don't be tight and give her joint Christmas and birthday presents.

Congrats indeed.

Excellent early Christmas present. Makes the rice cooker I've bought my Mum look a bit carp really.
