Setting record straight after laptop revelations

DOUBLE TROUBLE FOR A FIRST TIME DAD OF TWINS

- RICHARD IRVINE

This week I'll be clearing the air concerning a few things which have appeared in print over the last few months, and one faux pas from a few years ago.

It turns out Victoria, the twins’ mother, and I live in the same world, but view it very differently.

A few years ago, she read my column about our family adventures and was horrified to discover I was talking about a delicate/amusing situation involving Emma's nursery play mate.

After much discussion, disagreement and editing, she decided never to read it again on the basis life's too short and ignorance is indeed bliss.

Unfortunately, all that changed at the weekend, when she walked past my open laptop, saw her name, and decided to investigate what I'd written.

She was intrigued by my tales - who wouldn't be? - and decided to examine a few more for accuracy.
