Registry

On Thursday we registered Jack Eric Klein at Ilkley town hall. Now we can apply for child benefit and walk around in shell suits ....We went to Beverley to see Granny and Grandad Klein on Monday as it was Gramps' birthday. He is looking better I'm glad to say after his ordeal in Spain. We took a few snaps and I have uploaded them to Jack's Place. My TV is still in repair... I have pretty much decided now to get a new one. I want a nice big LCD so I can use it for Windows too whilst slumped on my sofa with a bottle of beer. Gone are the days of having to be banished upstairs to use the PC. My media centre is behaving itself too I am pleased to say. I have bought Norton Ghost to do external disk images to back it all up in case it goes belly up in the future. I can recommend Norton Ghost as its dead easy to use - although I have not tried a restore yet ! Jack is doing well and when the Health Visitor weighed him yesterday he was 8lb 2 oz. He is still sleeping pretty well - he has a feed at 10pm then sleeps until about 3.30 then had a feed and sleeps until about 7:30.
I got a note from Nidderdale Angling Club today saying my stretch of the Nidd is closed until July the 1st because of a virus at a Trout Farm higher up the river. All fish in the trout farm have had to be killed and the whole place disinfected. Now you know one of the issues with farmed fish - particularly Salmon is a hot topic as it affects wild salmon.
Hopefully I will get out on the River Ure in Wensleydale this weekend as Jack and Julie are pretty much settled now. Its a top river and you get a lot of the England fly fishing team up there.
We have a had a lot of visitors over the past couple of weeks and can I take this opportunity to thank everyone who has sent us gifts - it is really kind of you. Jack has probably enough clothes now to last him until he is two years old ! Although his wardrobe is not quite as large as his mothers !
