[Editors note: I altered the To: header as majordomo didnt like it. /J\] Hi Folks, Thought I better announce this to the world at once, rather than try and let everybody know individually, so no reply-all messages please. Reply-sender only. I am please to announce that on Friday 3rd November, 2000 at 13.50 (that's ten to two pm GMT :) ) the arrival of little baby Daniel Anthony Perrott-Hughes [1] (or "baby Barbie" as has already been mentioned). Weighing in at 6lbs 11ozs and 50cm long. It was a very difficult labour due to Nicole's condition, and after a harrowing and torturous 24 hours the doctors decided on the option of a c-section. Mother and baby are recovering well and I hope to have them home soon. For those of you that know us well, we will try and get round to phoning you soon, but we thought it would be quicker to send this as I am currently spending alot of time at the hospital. Baby photos will be ready hopefully by the end of the week, and I'll try and set up some rough and ready HTML pages at the following link if you want to see them: http://easyweb.easynet.co.uk/~missbarbell/bump/index.html ... and if you hadn't already guessed, I'm chuffed to bits :) Cheers all [2], Barbie. [1] For the Perl geeks among us I had tried to get Nicole to go with John Anthony Perrott-Hughes = JAPH = Just Another Perl Hacker, but seeing as she went for Daniel instead I think it'll have to be Definitely A Perl Hacker ;^) [2] he says with a Guiness in one had and a Baileys in the other. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Home: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Work: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Web Site: http://www.missbarbell.easynet.co.uk/ MBP Site: http://www.missbarbell.co.uk/ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
