My son, the wild-haired academic

I'm delighted to say that Younger Son's application to present a paper at the Royal Geographic Society's annual conference has been accepted.

It's based on his dissertation that looks at public awareness of marine environmental issues and, uniquely, the use of social media, such as Facebook, as a resource tool. Lots of you very kindly completed his on-line questionnaire that provided the information for his paper. So thank you very much.

When he is a famous wild-haired academic you can say, 'I taught him all he knows.'
