Gather ye rose-buds while ye may - - - Carpe Diem

 To the Virgins, to Make Much of Time

Gather ye rose-buds while ye may,
Old Time is still a-flying;
And this same flower that smiles today
Tomorrow will be dying.

a new dawn




Friday 25h Aug 2023...it was a special day.

Our Nathaniel smashed it!

You made us so so proud!

All of us!

Parents, grandparents, Teachers.

Took some greek wine to the School to Lorraine and David to thank them for all their mentoring and support!

St Munchins College is a GOOD SCHOOL, it builds strong ethos, probably the most valuable qualification in Life. Lorraine and David are sailing the School with such a talent and Art!

David's words to me on the day ("you kept the fire going") will stay with me, forever :)

Then, went to see Nathaniel and had a shot to celebrate (Passion fruit Absolut). 

And we listened together to the Carpe Diem extract (see below) and also to this song by Ella and Louis.

Δόξα τω Θεώ!

"Carpe diem. Seize the day." - Dead Poets Society


Mr Keating makes his students leave their classroom for his first class with them, and so tells them that they should "seize the day" - live life, before you eventually die.

Carpe Diem

First lecture yesterday to our year 1 undergraduate Food Science students at UL.
I showed them a motivating video from the film 
Dead Poets Society.
Seize the day , guys ! Make your life extraordinary!
