Congratulations to both of you.
You've chosen a lovely name too. Any significance to it?
When can we expect the first photos?

Thanks very much everyone, it's such a great feeling!! I'm hoping the cloud clears up enough tonight as I would to take a few widefield shots to show her how the heavens looked on the night she joined us
