Of our NCT Gang of Six, we are now the last couple waiting to pop, with the arrival for T&T of their beautiful Lauren. The tontine sweepstake seems a distant joke and somehow irrelevant (assuming I get round to handing over the £60 that I have already spent!).
At 40 weeks plus five days, every twinge, twitch and twang is a harbinger of contractions...and pregnant bloke will be no more.

Latest addition: Edward Arthur
Latest addition, Edward Arthur weighing in at 7lb 15oz (about 3.3kg in French silver), which leaves just two in the tontine: P and T. No sign of movement from either remaining mum-to-be as yet.

We'll have a shilling on the side (reprise)
After much confusion, the sweepstake is as follows:P,T > Ea
T,T > Eb
S,K > Cl (popped!)
E,W > Kt
C,C > Tr
E,M > PP
With Cl already popped, the tontine stands at five. We are the latest due date, which I guess makes E&M the hot favourites to take the £50....
