New Junior Member

[John Anderson]

Dear All,

John and Julie are pleased to announce the arrival of Linsey Jane at 6:37 yesterday morning.

For the ladies, Linsey is 47cm long, 1.42 kg and size 00000 which is pushing the lower limits of even the Avocet LV. Julie and Linsey are both doing well. Isla is thrilled to be a big sister and I'm elated but will be glad of a solid nights sleep.

Congrats John & Julie. How's her forward stroke?

[Simon McGuire]

Gongratulations again John. Really good news.

[Simon McGuire]

Of course that is meant to be congratulations although gongratulations does have a nice ring to it.

[Owen Walton]

Congratulations John and Julie; Annie and I wish all of you the very best.

[Graeme Auld]

Congratulations. Thats great. You will have to start looking at junior boats.

[Phil Thompson]

Great to hear that Julie and your new bub are doing well. I don't get the "solid nights sleep" bit in your post. Oh now I get it. Whilst Julie is still in hospital you will get a quick night or two under your belt and get back on track before the arrival home.

May she sleep through at 8 weeks and toilet train early

cheers

Phil

Congratulations to both of you John! Now you can safely plan your trips :) and if you are up all night long why not to use the time watching kayaking videos :) That will also help Linsey to learn kayaking very early age.:) All the very best.

Hey John, great news. Congratulations to you both. Enjoy the time together.

Thanks All,

Julie is hoping to be home either today or tomorrow.

Phil, you've sussed my cunning plan :).

Selim, I thought the exact same thing myself although I might have some explaining to do if Julie finds me up late at night watching something called TITS 4 !

Graeme, I may have to pick your brains about building a mini plywood baidarka or two.

Simon, LOL GONGratulations does indeed have a nice ring to it. With a very mellow tone and some good vibrations :) I think you've just coined a fabulous new word there.

Looking forward to catching up with you all soon and maybe getting Julie back in a boat too! I might not make it to many rolling events in the next few weeks though.

Cheers and thanks again for your kind wishes,

John, Julie, Isla and Linsey.
