REDBRIDGE Mayor Alan Weinberg is celebrating becoming a grandfather for the second time.
Mr Weinberg's daughter Nikki gave birth on Friday to Ellie, who weighed six pounds 13 ounces.
The mayor was telephoned about the good news while he was at the Globe Theatre on Saturday, and was able to make an announcement to other mayors there.
Ellie is Mr Weinberg's first granddaughter. He already has a grandson, one-year-old Alfie.
