Elton: "Oh, about £100,000 should do the trick."
David: "Gosh, there's a thought. Why stop at one? Make it £200,000."
OK! interviewer: "O wow! That's a whole new angle on the story! So you are saving up for another?"
Elton: "Write 'trying' for another...You know, this is even more exciting than when I bought Watford Football Club."
OK! interviewer: "Great interview, guys. So, I'll send you three copies in the post so you can keep them for the family album."
Elton: "Three copies?"
OK interviewer: "Yes. That's right. One copy for you, Elton, one copy for David and one copy for Zachary. When he's older I just know he'll want to read all about it. He'll be delighted when he finds out how he was born to gay celebrity dads who paid money up front for IVF to some random woman the other side of the globe and using the egg of another. 'I'm a special baby', he'll think. After all, you could snuff it and he'll need something to remember you by and, you know, he deserves to know about his roots..."

Little Zac is proving his worth already. Good thinking by his dads. He'll support them well into their old age.
