Good news - sit down warning

Post by Andy G » Wed Jul 21, 2010 12:56 pm

Hi Guys

2 bits of good news for me!

Firstly, Clare has agreed to officially become Mrs G :D

Secondly, we are expecting our first child in Jan/Feb 2011!

As my mum put it upon learning last night, "you dont do anything by halves!"

Delighted, excited, scared (havent been to the jewlers yet :damnfunny ) and shocked, but thought i'd share the news.

Another jnr Se'er on the way (fingers crossed).

:cheers

Congratulations to you both - I guess the car shopping is easier now as you can cross all the 2 seaters of the list :shock:

Looking forward to the stagger and head wetting :wink:

Hendeg was just asking me about Charlene a couple of minutes ago Andy, and I told him I was expecting an S_E announcement from you soon along the same lines.

Andy,

Bravo to you and Clare. Mostly to Clare for taking on the existing Mr G and a new Junior G broadly all at the same time :shock:

Get that GT3, quick - if it has back seats. It might not last long and you might not get another chance for years :thumbsup But I do have evidence that you can put wee ones in the back of a 911...I have a Porsche-specific childseat to prove it!

Welcome (in advance) to two of the least exclusive yet most widespread clubs in the universe.

I don't know driving in another way which isn't risky. Each one has to improve himself. Each driver has its limit. My limit is a little bit further than other's.

Great news - big congrats to you both :thumbsup

It will have to be a GT3 Lux - then you can have seats in the back :D Or wait until Sept and the launch of the Evora SC....
