I rather liked the potted pelargoniums on this balcony!Me enjoying peace and space on the gorgeous beach!How I wish I was still there!!

Dear Pam
ReplyDeleteGood to hear that you had a lovely time and now back home safe and sound
Also popping over to assure you that my education was 'wanting' to say the least : a bog standard comprehensive with 40 plus children to each class. We were taught mainly by the ex-Grammar School teachers who bitterly resented having to teach the riff raff and humiliated us whenever possible - it was all pretty miserable. I remember copying down endless notes from the blackboard and little else: as our home had very few books I would cycle several miles to the nearest library as often as I could and read, read and read. I failed all my A levels but later bought the syllabus for A level History and Human Biology and studied as hard as I could (trying to second guess what I had to learn). My proudest achievement remains my grade A for A level Human Biology - I learnt entire books (including page numbers) and I worked my way through the education system! I now have a BSc (Hons), MSc and three post-graduate qualifications (teaching included), plus my RGN & RHS and emphasis to my children (daily!) that hard work pays off.
Never say never and never put yourself down!
Best wishes
Jenny
