The Musings Of An Opinionated Sod [Help Me Grow!]


Time We All Took A Deep Breath …

So after the shocking news of yesterday, I think today needs to be an uber-quiet post so we can all try and catch our breath and not stress out too much.

The good news for you all is that while I will be bringing a ‘mini-Campbell’ into society … thanks to my wife’s genetic influence, it will be waaaaaaay better, nicer, smarter, kinder, more beautiful than I could ever hope to be, so don’t stress too much … I’m sure he/she won’t even like Birkenstocks!

Talking about my wife, it’s her birthday on Sunday, so I want to wish her a wonderful, wonderful day and I hope she won’t mind that her present will consist of baby stuff, because having just done a quick search on the internet, I’ve found out how utterly expensive everything is and I’ll be buggered if I’m going to let my gadget fund take a hit just to buy her something as well.

@Rob I am sure it is a total coincidence, and Mrs C knows it is all tongue in cheek but….but

Mario Balotelli had the exact same reaction as you Rob when told he was going to be a father..

Does Rob want to be compared to an emotionally conflicted, millionaire, international footballer? Probably. Is that his birthday present from you Niko?

George Clooney watch out.

With that bedside manner, you should be a Doctor.

Comment by Rob

In other news, it was good to see Fifa’s corruption extending to the refereeing of the first match of the world cup. Who are you going to support when it’s england v italy Rob? Probably whoever ends up winning.

Without wishing to be serious … you should read Andrew Jennings book on FIFA. It’s not as good as the one he wrote on the IOC, but it offers devastating insight into how they operate, though if you can’t be bothered with that, this recent article of his gives some food for thought:

Fifa is organised crime but Blatter is more bumbling uncle than godfather.

Comment by Pete

I’m still smiling from your news. Even FIFA’s stupidity can’t ruin that.
Happy birthday for sunday Jill.

Comment by George

You’re way too easily pleased.

Comment by Rob

Such wonderful news. Also a tiny bit alarming. But mainly wonderful. You’re going to be a very good father.

Comment by Marcus

My NIKE client said he’s very happy for me but scared for the kid. You both would get along famously … but thank you lovely, that’s very kind.

Comment by Rob

So are you getting her an Artoo Detoo pram?

Comment by Northern

Oh my god, that’s a genius idea …
