My oldest daughter started a Sociology degree last year.
My wife started a Law and Ethics in Nursing degree last year.
My youngest daughter i well on with her GCSE courses and will take her final high school exams this year prior to going to 6th form college and then maybe University?
It wouldn’t surprise me if Mollie & Stella cats and Pumpkin dog undertake some kind of rigorously academic course shortly.

Me, I wouldn’t be displeased if my Browns vs Fibonacci and linked posts become the pinnacle of my academic endeavours. (No degrees).
Unless… I convert it into something resembling a scientific paper. It could be a life’s work, what of it I’ve got left at least. Hmmm… maybe I could become even more famous!
My inspiration:
- Study Examines Schadenfreude in Football Fans (CSUSM article)
- Qualitative Inquiry on Schadenfreude by Sport Fans (The paper itself at ResearchGate, by Vassilis Dalakas, Joanna Phillips Melancon and Tarah Sreboth)
