    i must say how chemo took a lot as i was feeling  nauseous and I couldn’t eat. Food and everything was really stinky. Lost few kg which I shouldn’t.

    amazingly we are connected Stuck out tongue closed eyes 

    St. Cathrine’s school is very good, few of my good friends daughters are there. My son is in the state Catholic school, newly inTwickenham (St. Richard Raynolds), and my daughter will start same primary in Sep. We are very happy with it, specially as they are having strong music department.
