I haven't seen a birth announcement in a while on here, so I don't know if they are still de rigeuer, but I still wanted to mention the birth of Can-Addick #2, a sister to Annika -- Isla Margaret Hill Brisbin, on April 7.
I'm reminded that Charlton Life is about the only place that doesn't gouge you for the privilege of telling the world your good news!! By the way, she's sleeping so can' post right now, but thinks that the idea of Peter Varney-led consortium is just the ticket to thank the current board for their service, allow them a suitably dignified cash-out, and tie a great past to a sure to be glorious future!

BTW there's a whole thread started full of good news just like this so don't be sorry for letting us know.
The number of Canadian born Addick fans grows again!!
The Charlton programme doesn't charge either BTW
The plan for Charlton world dominance continues........
Congrats.
I'm reminded again what a great community this board is...living over here, this is by far the best means of feeling connected with the club that I've found.
Congrats BTW !
Going to watch the England game with my grandaughter tonight. Expect we'll both fall asleep through that one.
Been a very long road - more so for them - but we've been involved in the process for near on 2 years now (lots of legal stuff etc) finally resulting in them getting the baby they've always wanted. An unbelievable thing for my wife to do (I've really not done much at all) and was amazing seeing our friends with the child they always wanted.
Didn't quite all go to plan yesterday as my wife had a homebirth (she's a midwife for those that don't know and her best friends delivered him) but her full labour lasted less than an hour and he was born in the bath at 8.48am - she was early contracting from about 5am and we thought we had hours given past experiences. Midwives only just made it and our friends turned up and he was here - they were totally shocked but elated that everyone was ok.
I was trying to get the other kids ready for school and blow up a birthing pool at the same time - didn't need that in the end.
Amazing experience to be part of and my wife has certainly given them the best gift they could ever wish for
Baby Zac weighed in at 8lb 1oz, wife is doing very well and we were all on the Bollinger by lunchtime yesterday.
My kids now have a new 'cousin' according to them, loved it.
What a gift to be able to give your friends
Really pleased you shared this with us.
The world needs more people like your wonderful wife & you.
I wish all four of you much health & happiness ♥️
