The Graduate

is Tom Rouse!!!

We heard today that Tom is now BA (Hons) and we are over the moon.  It has been a particularly difficult time for Tom.  He gave up his job to be with his father and the deterioration in Dick's condition meant that writing a dissertation for a tutor in Swansea was very hard for him.  We have encouraged, cajoled and just plain nagged the poor lad to complete the darned thing and he submitted it last week, just before the deadline.  We are thrilled that he has now got his degree and know that his father would have been bursting with pride.  Both of his sons have got their degrees and are able to get on with their lives.

It's been a pretty emotional sort of a day really!

Well done, Tom. Dissertations are difficult enough at the best of times so you have done really well. Congratulations from Clare's mum (you may remember me from Olivers Battery school)
