First day of term! This was James’ last ‘first First day of term!
This was James’ last ‘first day’, in 2015. Now, both of our children have great fulfilling jobs, have left home and James is getting married…
So now it’s my turn.
I’m going back to school.
Unfortunately, I missed the front door photo in my enthusiasm to arrive on time at campus to meet the tutors and fellow students - 32 years after my last ‘first day’.
Good luck to everyone starting a new year, new school, new class this week - we’re in it together 🙌🏻
