It's a Boy

Bloggers will be pleased to hear that Mellisa gave birth to a healthy baby boy yesterday. Weight, for those interested, 7lb 9oz. No name yet. Congratulations to Ollie, Mellisa and his brother Marin.

Gail has gone back to England for a few days to see the baby and family, while I look after the boat in Driech Waterford.

I have enclosed a picture of the proad grandparents wetting the babies head with champagne.

    Hi Les - Congrats to Ollie and Melissa and hope Gail does not leave you there on your own, although being anchored/moored at least you will have a chance to keep a meal or two down!!!! Hope the better weather is on the way for you both - love the little bird in your picture.
    If you find your way to Cork don't forget to kiss the Blarney Stone, then you will end up talking non-stop like me! Love Chris and the Gardener (who has webbed feet after spending four days playing golf in Wales!)

    Thanks all for your best wishes and congratulations.
    We still haven't named the new arrival but we will choose a name with a simple spelling just to make it easy for Les! Ha ha!
    Hope you aren't too lonely Les, we are missing you.
    Olly (with a 'y' not 'ie'), Melissa (one 'l' two s's), Marin and grandson no 4 xxx

    Congratulations to the grandparents (and the parents if they are reading this). I love the photo of the penguins.
