"I can't go in to visit him or his fantastic mother, but I've already decided my ambition for him is that when he rocks up to Coppers Nightclub in 18 or 19 years, the lads on the door will say 'Go ahead - your Grandad is already inside!'" We're wishing all the Cahills our best as they welcome their newest member.
