India's Christening was today, and of course, several pictures were taken of the event. This one of India with her Great Grandmother though is my favourite.

What's the point of having your own website if you don't put pictures of your (nearly) six month old daughter on it? There isn't. So here's a couple.

Now, don't get excited. Yeovil isn't exactly, erm, Rio... Anyhoo, Bec found a picture of us on the YDR FM website. There's a link if you're interested. I don't blame you if you're not. If you are interested, Bec is in the center of the picture holding India, and I'm behind them. And no, I wasn't drunk. Honest...

Y'know, there are times when living in a technological cul-de-sac is a positive advantage. Let me explain; I now have ADSL installed at home, which is damn cool. What's even cooler, is that because there are so few people in this area using ADSL, the pipe is damn fast. Faster than most reports I've been getting from other people I know with ADSL. So, the answer is clear - move to a backwater dump, and get fast net access. It's either that or get a life...

At 03:26 this morning, my wife Beccy gave birth to our first child, a daughter called India Sian Courtenay.

Both mother and daughter were allowed to go home this afternoon, and are doing very well after the ordeal of the birth, which ended with a forceps delivery.
