Full responsibility?
I'd say 50-50

You are not weird Shug! It was just an idea, not like we sent them a sack load of baby stuff!

My sources say it's most likely a human being and not, in fact, a platypus.

Yeh and I get he or she is super cute, just like their Dad.

I did dream that James had a little boy though, so who knows......

James might not want to talk about it, but I don't think we need to "close ranks" every time the subject comes up... that just comes across as "knowledge for the chosen few" bullshit that pops up on here every now and again. We're pleased for him, for christ's sake!

Who's closing ranks about anything? If someone knows something it's just being respectful not to go blabbing about stuff if there hasn't been a proper announcement. That's how I feel anyway.

I didn't say anything about it for two months and it nearly killed me!

We've always had a policy of discouraging talk of their families on here, we don't see their families as public property; it's not anything new.

We're not closing ranks, we're as clueless as anyone. And Tim has a point, there's no need.

A labour councillor who was previously on FD highlighted the charity page as an example of why it (FD) should be closed, but in a manner that suggested the charity page needed closing.

That seems pretty bizarre that he should want to see FD closed. This is a pretty nice place in comparison to most fan-related forums I've been on.
