Here’s little Sophie Ball waving hello to the world with her little blue fingers! Born 16:01 24 October, Marien Hospital, Dusseldorf. Weight 3 kg (6.6 pounds in old money). The beautiful result of 40 hours labour for Jean. Our beautiful baby girl. Thanks to Helena, Ruth and Patrick at the hospital. Adam, Jean and Sophie.
Went to london and this is the only shot i got. Great to see Helen and Marc again though! On the Bakerloo line and hopefully about to make my flight back to Germany. Will look very stupid if I don’t as several of my colleagues should be there……. Gulp! Which coincidentally is also the noise I have been making for the last two hours in the queens whistle or some similarly named pub near leicester square. See Marc can do his falling asleep trick standing up too!
We went to dinner in Brauerei something on Ratinger Strasse. Marcus entertained and insulted eveyone in equal measure. Very fair in that respect.
At the airport waiting for Clodagh to arrive. Frank and Svetlana arrived late last night and Marcus is arriving this afternoon. This is possibly the last free weekend before the baby arrives so we are making the most of it!
