Graduation II

No, it's not a film, it's another family member to graduate this year. (It's a bit like buses. None for ages and then two come along together!) This time it was DS, who now has the letters MFA (Master of Fine Art) after his name! Well done Chris!

Chris knows his own mind, and doesn't like a lot of fuss, so decided he didn't want to go to the ceremony. His course had only nine people on it, and just one of them was going to the ceremony anyway. Chris decided he wanted to go to London and have a nice meal with his family, then go to a post-ceremony drinks thing with course-mates and families.

Here we are lunching in Wahaca in Covent Garden, eating Mexican street food - delicious!

Here is the young man himself outside Birkbeck College in London, ready to celebrate with friends. The get-together was perfect, informal and friendly, and left us all with a rosy glow - or was that the red wine?! What's more important is that Chris thoroughly enjoyed the day, which is all that matters.
