Welcome to the World... Ekaterina-Andromeda

I've been a bit neglectful of my BLOG for the last few months not having made any new posts since covering the wild fires in Greece over the Summer... reason being I've been taken up with looking after my new wife Anna in her last few months of pregnancy and spending some quality time together in what were the last few months that we'd ever again be alone together.. and the culmination was this morning at 7:45am when after 26 hours of labour Ekaterina-Andromeda was finally born to us... and here she is.. a few minutes old... and then a little later on having had a little rest and a feed... needless to say we're totally besotted and as the cliché goes.. our lives will never be the same again... and having met her after nine months of talking to a belly.. who'd ever want their lives to be the same again anyway..
