I can only explain England. The system is very similar in Wales. Slightly different in Scotland and I have no idea about Northern Ireland.

I should be located in Johannesburg, I think there you have to pay.No, Schooling here is not free. It also depends on which area you stay and what school your kids go to, that will determine the cost of the schooling as well.
Ha nice!I’m doing a animal management technical diploma. It mainly involves exotic animal husbandry and dabbles a bit in veterinary care and medicine. Health checks is a main part and also some legal stuff.
I also have to do maths.
I've been wondering where you were.Hi everyone. I think I am back for a while. Been a lot going on here. Well, here I my newest, Mocha. He is a big boy around 55 lbs.

Aw. . . congratulations, Gramma! So sorry to hear about all the deaths in your circle. Hopefully you can get over the trauma and come back to us for some cheering up. We're pretty good at that! (and we miss you)Good morning!!
I wanted to share my new love!! Grandson #2, Julian Gray.
It’s been very emotionally draining around here.
We’ve attended 3 funerals in the past 3 weeks and I’m done!!
My husband is recovering from his back surgery and just started back to work this week.
My kids are back in school and my oldest has his driving permit and had his first driving lesson with a really nice lady.
I remember grumpy old men teaching us!
Both my kids are taller than me and I’m 5’7.

Good luck man! Hope everything goes alright.Hello everyone haven't been on for a few days. It's bad when my painkillers don't give me relief. Now I need to get a few things ready for the hurricane. As of now one of the tracks take it right over us.
Not sure if I will leave and go to Georgia or stay and ride it out.
What ever I do Opo will be stressed because he will be out of his element.
