Pearl Elizabeth Coleman Many thanks to all of you who have sent your best wishes and emails to Sarah and Myself on the birth of our little daughter Pearl (6lbs 7ozs). We can't believe how lucky we are to have her. The sleepless nights and endless nappies are all going to be worth it...The MOB 2023 awaits her and her little chicken legs...not mine as they are fattening up with the lack of training. T2T next year is 28th January 2006 and there is more news to follow soon, about another major MOB event next year, so look out for details... Kind regards, |
