hi,as many of you know about elliot he has had a good few probs this year,,,,,,,well im very very happy to tell you life is just grand for him at this moment in time.
his new school he started in late winter time is going very well and getting plenty of support from teachers.he has settled in well and has loads of new friends.
he sat his prelims in the last month(unsure what other countrys call them,pre exam exams).
he sat 6 and passed 6.fantastic as he was off school for 3 months...
he didnt pass with A but passed them all the same.
the band he and his friends started are still going strong.even if they are a bit tone deaf lol.
and has even gone to a few concerts with me(paramore/muse).
his biggest challenge was last week at the senior school dance which was the 4/5/6th years...so many kids all at one time in one place,,but he went and loved it.
he still cant go out of the house in his home town and has to be transfered by car everywhere,,,,except in the town where his high school is..he wanders there for hours without a problem.in fact he spent 9 hours there last weekend.
elliot still spends much of his time in his bedroom when at home,he is well into his music and spends ages playing his guitars/keyboards etc.
but life is getting better for him,,,,and with only about a year and a half left at the high school we are hoping he will get to uni/college.......as we will move with him,,maybe edinburgh or stirling.
a few times when we have come home from shopping etc we have had about 6 6th year students in our house from his new school,,who just came over to see him and say hi.......they traveled 6 miles on the bus just to visit.nice.
he seems to have made a group of friends of about 30 at the new school from 4th to 6 th years and fits in grand to there life style.
so i just wanted to say thanks for the support earlier in the year,and update you on elliots progress.
thank you very much ..
