Ah. I'd assumed that she could be (reasonably) sure, and was wondering why
no-one had mentioned the baby being healthy/large considering it was
apparently early. But I'd not heard the test results.

That's another one my son's picked up on! (They show it here too) He's also
started saying "g'day" (don't know who he got that one from) so I think
he's going to have a very strange mixed accent/vocabulary

She rides a bike regularly, so I thought all Archers listening URCers would
be card carrying members (albeit with the card hidden in the dark, never
touched recesses of their wallet).
