Double congratulations then! Very Happy

To right James (on that note, if it had been a boy, he'd have been called James Wink

)

What more could a man ask for?

A beautiful daughter,
A beautiful fiance,
A nice home,
An RS4,
And a beautiful B6 A4.

If I drank, I think I'd get pished Laughing

Bizarrely, if I had been born a girl (no smart ass comments anyone!) I would have been called Charlotte.... Small world!

Posted: Sat Jan 21, 2012 11:55 pm

Small world indeed.

We had names down to either Cal (not Carl) or James for a boy, James was preferred.
Charlotte, Neve or Fraya for a girl.

Charlotte Neve Armitage it is Very Happy

I don't have to pick Allie and Charlotte up from hospital until 11am tomorrow.
So, I'm going to get up early and fit this B7 S-line gearknob and the B7 RS4 pedals.
As a present, my local specialists are going to fit and code my cruise sometime over the next two weeks Very Happy

I like the middle name best !

Good luck to all three. John

Thanks for all the best wishes gents. Truly awesome being a dad thumbright

Probably the last update for a while at least. Managed to get these done yesterday before going and collecting my little family from hospital.

B7 RS4 pedals and footrest and B7 A4 S-Line alloy gearknob and new gaiter.

Jase - you 'da man for still getting the mods in on the day you pick your 'wife' and new daughter up from the hospital! Cool

Posted: Mon Jan 23, 2012 10:21 pm

I even managed to change four nappies, bath Charlotte AND wash both the RS4 and the A4 today.
Work has me turbocharged most of the time, so it rubs off at home Wink

Apologies to those I'd said I'd post a few pics. Just a tad busy with Lil Miss, doing dad stuff and expressing from Ermantrude (Allie)

Here you go;

Posted: Fri Jan 27, 2012 8:48 am

I can feel "very proud Dad" leaping out from your post Jase - she's a cutie alright! Very Happy

Ermintrude - LOL, I remember it well....

I bet you haven't called Allie that to her face!
"Do you, Jason Armitage, take Ermintrude to be your lawful wedded wife....?"

Congrats to you all Mr. Green

Cheers Al. I did actual call her that. Made her laugh enough to tell me to go away as it hurt her sticthed bits Laughing

Quick 5 minute job this.
Used a high temp adhesive (silicone based) to glue it in place. I'd already etch primed the rear of it to stop any possible Stainless Steel/Aluminium reaction going on.
Camera phone pics, so not brilliant.

Not managed to post my congrats on here yet matey Cool

But just to say again, chuffed to bits for you and Allie, the future Mrs Armitage, and great to hear you're settling down to fatherhood (want a pic of that wooly hat the Lil miss is wearing!!) and knee deep in nappimess!!

For just a split second tho as I scrolled down through the pics of the 1.8 engine bay above I thought the bright yellow oil stick handle was a dummy, sticking up out of the manifold!! Shocked

Like you'd photshopped one on for a laugh!! Laughing

Nice one matey (and I bet you've got one with fourrings and an Audi babygrow on order too! Wink

!!)

Nah, but here's dedication for you.
I was wearing a genuine Audi Sport T-shirt at her birth thumbright

Posted: Sun Jan 29, 2012 5:50 pm

Congratulations, I can still remember the high from when I was in the same position, make the most of the next 14 years, after this the back chat and spending starts, and keep her away from horses too Laughing

Holy thread resurrection Batman.
Been a while. Little one isn't as demanding now, so getting a bit time for the cars again.

Got these off Noel, I know they are S4 versions, but they look a lot better than the plain plastic. Haven't been able to find the S-line versions, even after months of looking.

Will get some pics up when fitted. Got a week off, so should get them done.
Also at lonnnnnng last, cruise and reverse camera getting done this week.

Jase..

What did you end up doing with the butchered RNS-E Jas ????

Posted: Mon Apr 09, 2012 1:39 pm

It's sat in a box on top of my wardrobe.

Posted: Mon Apr 09, 2012 6:14 pm

Look forward to seeing them fitted mate Wink
