It is a lesser known fact and will still, in all probability, be an inconceivable concept to many Madhatters, but statistically speaking, most of you at some point over the next ten years will have offspring. If that sends you rushing out to the shop to buy a fresh packet of Pampers, let me put this in context, Editorially, that relates to a new baby story, more or less every Issue!

With this in mind and if digressing was an Olympic event etc..., Michael Johnson, etc.., Madhatters would like to wish many congratulations to Rob and Jacqui Slinger on the arrival of their new daughter, Josie this Summer. If we were to start a Madhatters Baby league table, Rob would now be up at the top of the table, along with Ashley, Honey and some others we may not know about, with three points all round. However if we are perhaps missing the point, Rob is not, and is of course ecstatic about being a Father for the first time!

The last year has been very busy for Mr Slinger, here seen, telling another, quite frankly, unbelievable fishermans tale about the size of his new Daughter. Rob has also spent much of his time marketing and producing from scratch the Camsling, his should mounted camera support system, as seen here. So, God bless you young man and all who sail in you, from Madhatters everywhere.
