Where did the last 40 years go?! Loved seeing the entire concert on TV over the last couple of days and reliving the experience, what a show! #liveaidat40 #LiveAid

It’s sad to say that I’m retired now, but what a journey it’s been! ‘Don’t cry because it’s over, smile because it happened’ 🥰
Hi it's Andrea Ruff here, today I retired from teaching after 28 wonderful years. It’s been a pleasure to teach so many lovely students at the CCA. Huge thanks to Claire Clark, our sponsors, all my colleagues & all of my students both past and present.
