A big well done to Chrissie's elder son Andy, who graduated this week.
I've known Andy since he was two days' old, and used to jog around her living-room patting his little back - he's grown a bit since then as you can see 
He's a lovely lad with the gift of the gab and I'm sure he'll go far whatever he chooses to do and charm a lot of ladies along the way.
Graduation day with a proud Chrissie:

Did he enjoy the graduation day. Some people love that kind of thing and some hate it.
I hated mine but it meant a lot to my parents who were both then still alive.
I hope it works out for Andy and he gets a good job and all that stuff. It is the recession again now and jobs for graduates seem to be the first and worst casualty in recessions. 
I think he did enjoy it, Furby, although that was an added bonus as originally he was, like you, pleasing his parents! It was a lovely day and the buffet afterwards made up for the lengthy proceedings in Welsh and English 
ps No job required at the moment because he is going to Manchester (funded by us) to study for an MSc in Marketing and Advertising. He has an interest in sustainable products....... so we'll see!

Hi Chris 
Just to say well done to Andrew from me as well. He deserves all his success - I remember him as a lovely little boy, concentrating on his Duplo, I think - it obviously helped!
