Public announcement blog!  Good morning everybody, I bring you good news. Edward Joel Shaw was born at 1:36am this morning, weight 9lbs 4 (which is big I am told). Jo, Edward and Olly are all doing well.  I know everybody will be really excited to meet Edward and I'm sure the Shaws will introduce him soon, but please remember to respect their time to get used to parents of two. Just want to finish by thanking God for a safe birth and for blessing Jo and Olly with a second child.  Paternity leave Now that Edward has arrived, paternity leave begins. Olly won't be around for the next two weeks, most likely returning for the Christmas social. Fear not, in his absence, I will be in charge and Peter Lockwood will become my minion. Please treat him with the same respect you treat us with Contact If you want to know what is happening week-to-week in the youth work, you are already in the right place.
