Well, where did that first year go? My eldest, who is studing Sports Science at Liverpool John Moores is home ....... for four months! He has had a great year, or so he tells me, but, he keeps reminding me that its been alot of hard work, somehow, I believe him. I'm very fortunate that he seems to know where he is going. When he was home at Easter, he said that he should be finished by the time he is 26, heck! he is only 20 in September. He will have completed his BSc, then an MA and finally his Phd by his 26th year. Good luck to him and all first year students who have made it through.
