At Least This Story Has A Happy Ending

Now he's been invited to the White House, and (according to the BBC Radio News just now) has had commendations from NASA and Mark Zuckerberg!

and he had three ( teachers who were willing to swear " oh mar gard, we thought he had a bomb" )
at least his family had a sense of humour
but I have heard no one say - only in America and shrug their shoulders
