A Proud Moment Of A Home Schooling Type Nature.

Bertie’s first Zoom meeting of the day last Friday was, how shall I put it, emotional, particularly for Nigel who was down for Home Schooling that morning …….

…… because Bertie was made the class Values Champion for the spring term. Nigel was beside himself as he read the letter, to be honest it could have had Buckingham Palace’s letter heading on it, the little fella couldn’t have been any prouder …….

……. and …… Nigel was to present his beloved nephew with his medal.

Let’s just say it was a very wonderful shared moment …………..

Nigel has always, always wanted a medal, but the pride he felt as he carefully slipped Bertie’s over his head was, he sniffed, was a feeling that could never be equalled.

There was a certificate to go with the medal which Nigel also presented to Bertie with great ceremony, a strong handshake and manly pat on the shoulder.  Nigel said it was then hard emotionally to continue with the first lesson of the day, so proclaimed an early break with milk and chocolate digestives all round and five minutes on his own to compose himself for the rest of the day.  What is he like?
