William Fox-Pitt – Second Rolex Diary Welcoming a new member to the Fox-Pitt family [Congratulations on your new baby! How is she doing?] The big excitement at the end of October last year was definitely the arrival of Chloe Rose into the family!

She’s now six month’s old and it’s like she’s always been here – she gets on really well with her two older brothers, and parents for that matter – we’ve been very lucky, she’s a good girl! Taking a break over the winter months [You had a bit of a winter break between November and January, how did you spend it?] The break I had between November and January was fairly baby focussed!
