Hi Henk,
Congratulations on the new arrival, wishing you many sleepless nights, no I don't really VERY PLEASED FOR YOU BOTH.
We can wet the babies head in May (or is this a British tradition) we'll have a few drinks.

"Beschuit met muisjes"
It is a custom to serve all the visitors who come to meet the newborn baby the so-called "beschuit met muisjes". "Beschuit" is Dutch rusk and "muisjes" (literally: little mice) are little aniseeds covered with a thin layer of sugar: in case of a boy they're blue and white, and in case of a girl they're of course pink and white. The father will also treat his colleagues to "beschuit met muisjes".
Have a nice day !

Hi Ron,
Looks fine, but can we still wet the babies head in Burton, there again I think we will be doing it as a matter of course.
Have you booked your hotel yet. Also on another note, did I send you a CD of the house. If not, can you PM your address to me again and I will send you a copy of the new shoots.

AAAaaargh! RON! I've seen enough of that 'beschuit met muisjes'!!
It's been quite a week; the little girl got ill and was hospitalized. Took 8 days and a antibiotic treatment for her to recover.

Just this morning we brought her back home, and everything's OK now.
Don't know yet if I'll be at the Burton meet, but If I am, I'll bring some 'beschuit met muisjes'!!
