That's marvellous. It's one of those events when you spend the day with a slightly twisted face because you're trying not to cry. That must have been a lovely day and you must have been so proud.

 

 

 

The only time we came close to being talked to was at a ceremony where my son had done some gadgety thing to his boots which were starting to peel. There he was meeting us afterwards looking splendid in his uniform and medals and peeling boots. A sergeant 'suggested' he did something!
