We have become an uncle

I have great pleasure in formally announcing the birth, at 2.20pm today, of Alexander George Gates - son of Vanessa's sister Hannah and Dagenham Dave (allegedly), brother of Oliver and cousin of Jamie, Jack and Holly.

No news yet on weight, but he came out through the sun roof with lots of dark hair (unlike his "dad"). Mum is apparently "pain free" (who said drugs are bad?) and "very happy."

The picture above, taken at Friday's Take That concert, is perhaps a bit dated now given the events of a few hours ago but I hope to bring you one or two sharper and more recent images in the coming days.

Congratulations to all involved (although, clearly, I'm not convinced Dave was involved) from the Whites.

I don't know about anyone else, but Uncle Barry will certainly be having a celebratory snifter tonight.
