My brother's soon-to-be-wife is pregnant... I'm going to be an uncle!

Fantastic news, Ollie. You're going to make the best uncle ever.

:-D

My brother has no idea how much I'm going to spoil him/her. ;-)

My nephews are now 23, 21, 20 and 12. I've never sent them a card, bought them a present, and in fact have barely seen or spoken to them in years, despite being close to their monther (my eldest sister). Jo's niece (technically my nioce too, I suppose) I've seen once since birth, and she's now three and a half.

Misanthropy - the gift that keeps on giving!

This didn't stop me buying a couple of things for Adam and Beth's offpring, but that's because we're not related.

Are you afraid that a stronger connection to your young relatives will tempt you and Jo into making some lil ones of your own? ;-)

It's more that it might raise expectation that I'd be willing to see them or speak to them in future.

Believe me, there is nothing on this planet that would tempt Jo or me to spawn.

I think you and Jo would produce cute and smart spawn.
