Some facts are best out in the open

I bought Jamie a new tee shirt today, a photo of which you can see above. You don't think it's in any way self-indulgent, do you?

About Me

My photo
Barry White
Coleraine and Guiseley, United Kingdom
Born in Belfast in 1972, I'm now 53 years old and therefore getting on a bit. My wife Vanessa and I met whilst we were both working in London in 1997. Six years later we took the momentous decision to move North to Leeds where Vanessa grew up. And in 2005 we were married. Other than passing my driving test - which I eventually did in 2024 - becoming a father was one of the few things I hadn't yet done (honestly) that I quite fancied a go at. This blog is aimed at keeping you informed about how I am doing. Oh, and I also bang on about some other stuff too. Quite a lot of other stuff. I try to make it funny because, if I don't, you won't come back. And there's nothing worse than talking to yourself.
