No no I disagree there every little thing like that is huge to us and I remember all those times too...oh god I'm filling up here so i am.
You'll all be thinking I'm off my head..
But thanks really for your good wishes everyone truly....
But seriously, that is very impressive. Does he have any ideas about what to do when he leaves school?

Yes Trust he wants to be a Plumber,his dad's a Plumber/Gas Engineer and wants to follow him into it,not a bad move really.
Although he is staying on to do some Highers first.
Sounds like a good plan. I think the world will need plumbers for the forseeable future, and I used to work for a builder's merchant so I'm familiar with some of the bits and pieces. It's nice that he is following in father's footsteps, so to speak, that seems quite rare nowadays.

did he say "Thank You" for the miseryhelp you gave him??? or does he still have the scars from being chained to his desk
i bet spending an afternoon here with us made him work harder ha ha
My son asked has me to say thankyou for all the good wishes. As Mum mentioned he did come on the forum once,and had a little laugh at my expense so knows what a friendly bunch you all are although very,very embarressed that I have a signed pic of Noely in the lounge especially when a mate of his came round for the first time and was asked if that was his DAD!!!!! LOL...(can't type what he replied this would be deleted)
Mum he didn't actually come out and thank us for nagging him,but he did admit he was sick to death of the look I would give and one word STUDY,but he knows now it's been all worthwhile.. And of course the £100 his Dad gave him as a reward went down very well last night which I didn't know he was getting. He also had his first proper date yesterday,you know cinema,food after I'm paying etc,he found love at his little brothers swimming lessons over the summer Aw......
Which may I add he came home from in a trance,so in all a very happy day for him LOL....
No he got that when he came home,but I went to pick them up,kids nowadays don't know how to board a bus.....and I sat for 30mins waiting on them and they were both sat behind a huge monument about 20 yards away the whole time,locked in an embrace,it was a shame as I'd got out to have a look around to see if I could spot them and stumbled across them,I don't know who was more embarressed me,him or her LOL....
