Academic Enthusiasm

I mustn't (certainly haven't) forgotten yesterday's other important event, which was visiting Christ the King College in the morning with Daniel, to collect his A-level results.

Being amongst so many teenagers, being so massively overjoyed, is a genuinely heart-warming experience - which I'm definitely not poetic enough to describe in words. I failed to spot any who were actually looking disappointed, so Lewisham must be helping yet again to bouy up those national stats about pass rates going through the roof.

And Dan got the grades he needed for at least one of his conditional UCAS offers - I think he surprised himself a bit!
