My lad.

Despite being born with a heart condition that curtailed any sporting ambitions he might've had he has embraced life.  GOSH literally saved his life in 2016 & he has never looked back.

Found his niche & worked hard - graduating last year with a degree in Motorsport Engineering.  Now works as a design engineer for a specialist who operate in the the F1 & UAV arenas along with loads of other stuff I'll never understand.

I will also never tire of folk telling me what a great lad he is.

I'm pretty proud of my daughter who has managed to overcome pretty bad social anxiety and suddenly explode into her own life at uni. I was worried about her actually leaving her room after we left her there, but she was brave and went out every night at freshers to meet people, has excelled in her first year of vet bioscience, and has somehow become the Uni hockey team vice president, and player of the year in the South Wales League.

She came home for the summer recently and I asked 'who are you and what have you done with my daughter?' 😁

Update from my daughter, 2 more days done and only two more bollockings.

From her, to the boss.

She told him yesterday, as he was going off on one about how many things there are on the to do list and with the other person off, not sure how they're going to get through them. I think she hit the office equivalent of flow.... and in a calm, quiet but assertive way told him that probably the best option was to STFU COMPLAINING AND ACTUALLY GET ON AND DO SOME OF THEM

She's still not quite confident enough to think she's cracked it, but has the office equivalent of getting down a gnarly trail, where it got a bit sketchy at times but you aim for the next flat bit and cling on and is now sort of buzzing and ready for the weekend - Green Day tomorrow, Kings of Leon sunday.

My Niece just completed her second Ironman yesterday in Barcelona, and she only went and won her age group AND first UK female!

Amazing. Very proud indeed.
