So anything we should be doing in the run up to d-day that we can't do after?

i.e. posh dinner, lads nights out, bike rides, weekends away, buy ipad2 etc.

Does life as you know it BC change AC?

Bit bit worried...

Look up where Ryanair etc fly on those super-early/late flights from your local airport, and make sure that you visit any of those places that sound good before you have children. Because there are few things worse than having a toddler or young child on a super-early or super-late flight when they are knackered yet so wired with the airport excitement that all they can do is scream.
Oh yeah, and visit places where the water is dodgy and there's no toilet roll now rather than later. You'll look back on the amoebic dysentry with fond memories some day....

Have sex a lot.

So you can remember what it's like.

Dc don't do long meals, long car trips unless asleep, museums, plays or any sort of culture.
Book a city break and enjoy. We were pretty broke, but we still went up to London before DD1 was born and it was great ( also take lots of pictures if DW is visibly pregnant, it's actually hard to believe you ever were)

Sleep, eat and get laid.

Have lots of noisy sex as that will stop. Suggesting that quick nookie while the kids are in school 5 years later will only earn you a nag/slap and a cold dinner.

Sleep, sleep, sleep... Sleep like you've never slept before. It won't be long until you start to believe that getting up at 6:30am is actually a lie in!

Buy a homebrew kit and make a bar in you own house.

Move all your HiFi speakers out of reach, otherwise the tweeter cones get pushed-in and the vent port foam gets pulled out!

Hide all CD's and DVD's you wish to keep, these WILL be destroyed one way or the other same goes for any books.

DS destroyed Exp's entire collection of David Eddings First Editions. I've replaced some but cant get hold a few anymore.
