My wee girl has set off today to climb Kilimanjaro and then go and work in an orphanage in Tanzania. I am rather proud of her.

Hell no, it's not like more people have died on Kilimanjaro than Everest is it? Oh no, hang on.....

I suggest you celebrate by watching old episodes of Hawaii Five-0 all day.

And congratulations!

:D soulfinger Jr, who some on here will remember from when he was much smaller, had some joyful news yesterday.

He won two Civil Engineering prizes at University. This was extra good because all the other prizes were won by final year students and he is only at the end of third year. This, while being very nice for his CV, came with the nice bonus of £700 cash money or, as he prefers to describe it, a new bike.

The geek genes he gets from his mum, I'm responsible for his taste in music only. :D

Congratulations to young soulfinger, and to his parents who should be justifiably proud (both of his academic achievements and his musical taste).

Youngest hazardette has just finished at uni. Graduation next week. Blimey, where does the time go?
Likes the warm feeling but is tired of all the dehydration.
