A Daughter for Cookham's Honorary Webmaster 6 November 2003 |
|
Congratulations to Julian Bell founder of Cookham.com on the birth of his first daughter. Julian says: "On 6 November at 12:28, Cara Eleanor Rachel Bell entered our world! Both Pauline & Cara are doing fine, Harris & Rory are delighted with their new baby sister, Dad, however, is a little overwhelmed by it all! Cara is doing fantastically and weighs 7lbs 8oz. She is very peaceful and quiet - which won't last long when she gets home to Harris & Rory!! Living with boys for the last 5 years, we have become accustomed to slugs, mud, cars, fighting and the enjoyment of the sounds of various bodily functions - this, I am reliably assured by friends with girls, will probably stay the same but with the added spice of nail varnish, sparkly bits and lots of PINK! I can't wait!"
