Back again





Hi there everyone. I made it back from my holiday in one piece.


My wife and I had a lovely day for our wedding in England, the sky was clear and it was very warm. We had about 90 guests many of whom travelled from countries other than England. The wedding took place in a very old church in a small village called Heighington in the north of England. The church was built before the Norman invasion in 1066 so it was a beautiful place with a lot of history.


There were no problems with the wedding, my wife looked great in her dress, which was quite spectacular. I was wearing the full morning suit as is traditional.


After the wedding we went by Rolls Royce to Redworth Hall for the reception. This was a 14 century country house and again it was perfect for the day.


After the wedding we went to Thailand on honeymoon. We stayed in Bankok for 4 days and then had a week in Phuket. Thailand was nice and very hot and we got to see elephants, but we spent most of our time relaxing and enjoying ourselves by the pool with cocktails.


When we got back to Australia we had a shock because it was so cold!!!


It is good to be home to see all of our friends who were not able to come for the wedding.


At JEC everything went well while I was away, before I went we took on some new teachers who have been busy teaching the Callan Method and they are doing very well. In my next blog I will introduce them to you.


We have also started our new JEC Business English course. This started at the beginning of August and is very popular with the students that are studying it. They find it challenging but enjoyable and they think that they are learning a lot. We hope that this course will become as successful as our Callan Method courses.
As always I hope that all our old students around the world are happy and that they are still speaking English as much as they can.
Take care until next time
John
