    Fantastic, delighted for your family Kev.

    Interestingly enough I spent a significant amount of time at Uni specialising in bodily fluids as well.

    Well it certainly isn't her looks she gets from you is it.

    Congratulations to Laura, I wish I had half the brains or determination that she's got. Tell Crystal to make you something extra special for your tea to celebrate

    She'll soon have more degrees than a thermometer. Well done Laura!

    Great news. Although I've never met her, I've corresponded with Laura in the past, including helping her compile her cheat sheet for her GCSE History project on Lenin and Stalin! She was an absolute pleasure to work with, and I'm so pleased that she's still flourishing on the academic front.

    I remember that well. She still speaks highly of you, mate, and was extremely grateful for your help at the time.

    Seeing those pictures from Wembley I think the Incredible Hulk mags are more up your street :D
    Well done to Laura, she deserves all the good things life has to offer

    Congrats to all of you - feels like she`s grown up as part of the BBS family and you should be rightly proud of everything she achieves.
    Strange isn`t it but always feels better if your offspring excel more so than doing it yourself - well done Laura!!!!

    There have been many occasions when the BBS has rallied behind my family and helped us through some really tough times with Laura's poor health, her kidney transplant being an obvious example. It's only fair that they hear of our good times, too.
    You're spot on with your comments about enjoying it more when your children enjoy greater success than you.
