Christian, Helen & Oliver George. Yes, George!
George Best, Angie & Callum, back in the day. Time to wet the baby's head? After a year best forgotten by far too many of Peter’s Friends, your correspondent is delighted to revel in the good news that Christian & Helen had a son on Saturday, arriving fashionably late by 1 week. All is well, and the parents are understandably delighted. Your correspondent had the news broken to him by George Best yesterday morning, who apparently lost any sense of reserve and calm during the delivery process. And understandably so, I gather. Anyway, he had managed to compose himself by the time he called, dragging himself away from "Scrapheap Challenge" in order to break the news to the waking world on Sunday morning. The press release from Harleston read as follows, and Christian was thoughtful enough to include some biological details for those who like such things.
Hello all,
Please see attached photos of Ollie Whiting, born 10:10 am on the 12:12:09, weighing 7lb 12oz.
Best laid plans and all of that - our well progressing home birth suddenly turned into a forceps hospital delivery, as little man passed meconium and became stressed; on the upside that meant an epidural for the last 20 mins of the birth - sheer bliss!
We are obviously heavily biased, but we think he's gorgeous.
Lots of love, and Happy Christmas,
Christian and Helen XXX
What he forgot to include was that fact that he his son had taken his christian name as his second name. Not Christian, of course……….. but George. This is quite true.
