A Summer's School Pick-Up!

Sutton: A Typical Summer School Pick-Up! (20.8.2026)

Of course, we live in South-West Greater London (Sutton & Cheam) – which used to be East Surrey until 1965. The place is countryfied and full of trees and parks – the trees are in the streets – planted down the side of the pavements (my dad said – when he visited in 2000 – that this is “posh”). Sutton used to be terribly wealthy in all areas, but now is just a place that well-off people like to live despite the economy completely collapsing). Obviously, I am here just by accident. I ended-up here more or less by accident due to a relationship, etc. Still, we are where we are and have to make the most of it. The schools are good and we are providing the best education we can for our two daughters. This is my partner “Gee” (left) walking with “Kai-Lin” (right) – I am the rear-guard holding the ‘phone. Earlier that day, me and Gee had attended a School Assembly – within which all the children demonstrated to their parents what they had laerned over the last academic year (September-July).

Due to its high human value, an idea was shared by the Head of State at the closing of the day of analysis: “On a day like today,” he stressed, “in which we remember with particular emotion and nostalgia dear Vilma, a woman who was a clandestine and guerrilla fighter, innovative engineer, founder of spaces and policies for the promotion and defense of women’s rights in Cuba and the rest of the world, at the request of comrade Teresa, secretary of the Federation of Cuban Women, and other women who have called our attention to the need to protect and promote their advances, on behalf of the Party and the Government, I confirm the commitment to pay special attention to ensure that there is never a setback in the policies for the advancement of Cuban women, when implementing the new economic and social measures”.
