People who read blogs regularly, and who even complain about when your not updating yours frequent enough for their liking, yet, who have none of their own, or have abandoned theirs long ago, hmmm!

I’ve just been reading that Juan-Pablo and (the lovely) Connie Montoya have had a baby boy. Sebastien Montoya was was six pounds nine ounces at birth. Congrats to them both, methinks JPM is going to be out on the motocross track tennis court again this week to ensure that he has another few weeks off!
