Seb is Top of The A's!

Proud parents Dan and Pat Murphy were overjoyed with the A-Level results achieved by son Sebastian. He gained an A in French, an A in German and an A* in Psychology. Seb is following in the footsteps of sisters Katie and Charlotte who also received great results several years ago, and who also excel at languages. Seb is hoping to go to Newcastle University. Seb is pictured above on his 18th birthday.

Well done Sebastian!

Cuban Proposal? Jackie Says: "Si, Si"

Frank & Pat Murphy's son, Anthony, secured his bride during a romantic holiday in Cuba with girlfriend Jackie. He popped the question, and the girl from Liverpool said yes!

Jackie Lawton is one of four and was born in Walton Hospital. Her family originated from Walton, and she now lives in Skem, where she met Anthony at nearby Ormskirk. Jackie is an accountant, and the pair of them have been courting for a few years - but she may correct me on my figures! The couple are shown in the above picture, soon after the proposal. Anthony is the one not wearing the dress!

Congratulations to Anthony and Jackie from all the family!

Sarah Purcell is First Class!

Michael Purcell's daughter, Sarah, has just received a 1st Class Honours Degree (B.Sc.) in Geography from Kings College London. If that wasn't enough, Sarah also won the Tenants Prize for excellence in the field and John B Thornes medal awarded for the best performance in Physical Geography in the final year. Her dissertation has been nominated for the essay prize awarded from the Royal Geographic Society. John B Thorne's wife sent her a letter of congratulations.

This is a fantastic achievement for Sarah and all her family and extended family are over the moon with her dedication and fantastic effort. Her dad Michael is the youngest of Agnes Purcell's children (who we all knew as Aunty Aggie!) And Aunty Aggie would have been chuffed with her Granddaughter's brilliant achievement. Sarah is seen receiving her Bachelor of Science Certificate fromm the Chancellor of the University. Well done Sarah!
