ooooh. Good question.

My BA dissertation. It won me the prize for best original research in the final year, and it scored an almost unprecedented 98 - I was told that hadn't been done in our dept since the 1970s.

Getting a 1st class degree from a red brick university made me very very proud. Winning the prize for best original research, and the prize for best performance for a final year student, and basically also being eligible for the best female graduate prize - but having won that prize already in my second year (dont ask, it was complicated!) and another female student coming very close and our tutor suggesting that I probably would be happy for that student to be awarded the prize that year because it would mean so much to her - yeah , that all made me smile a lot :P

Just wish dad had survived long enough to see me do it all.

I'm also really proud of Carrot. With all that he had to contend with - he's turned into a smashing little chap and I take some credit for helping him do so.
