I will always remember around August 20th 2011 when Mum and Dad drove me 4 hours from our house in France down to my new life in Nice as part of my year abroad. They stayed with me for a few nights and met Pat for the first time. They took us out for a meal and we went to the beach at Villefranche-sur-mer. These were very special times and Mum made me feel at ease about my transition to France and year ahead. Xxxxxxxxxx
