Very Proud Grandparents - Again

Wayback when, we were able to announce that our fist grandson James had passed his 11 plus examination and had secured a place at the Dr Challoner's Grammar School in Amersham.

That then left us with a long wait to see if #2 grandson Ben would likewise pass his 11 plus (never in any real doubt).  Our week of building progress was crowned at 5pm today with a Face Time call from Ben to tell us that he too had passed!

I am not at all sure about the etiquette of grandparents bragging about such things on their Blogs but hey, I don't care either - so proud am I.   It remains to see if he too will get a place at Dr Challoner's but naturally we hope so.   Filial preference applies so fingers crossed on that.

Absolute credit and acknowledgement must go to Gerrards Cross C of E Primary School for giving both boys a respectful, caring and learning environment

It's in the genes too, of course.

Here is a family favourite picture of me, James and Ben a few years ago, granted:
