    Welcome to the site, Kev! We are 'across the pond' in the US.

    How long will your studies be? Getting nervous? Excited?

    Hey Kev21,

    If you don't stop talking about being old I'll ban you from this site [J/K]

    Seriously, I would like to continue the warm welcome offered by Cougarnurse. I admire your anticipation of getting started with your nursing studies. Just channel this energy towards an open mind, endless questions, and desire to never stop learning & caring.

    BTW, love the avatar pic. My youngest son [24 yrs old] plays intramural college rugby whenever he can find the time.

    Please, post often & do visit the Male Mursing Forum section, too!
