Last time I think it was a supermarket; this time I'm not too sure, but I think it's a high rise student accommodation block. I do know it's NOT a new Virus Hospital.
You really can't hold the lad down. Yes, Kimbo returns to his duties as 'ribbon cutter extraordinaire'. There were swathes of admiring crowds and photographers, as well as a red carpet. Prince Charles was obviously too busy.
Personally I've never been asked to open a tin of beans, let alone a building; but Kimbo seems to be in regular demand.
OK, I'm banging his drum, and I'm sure you're going to berate me about 'pride coming before a fall', but I AM very proud of all three of my children, whether they cut ribbons or not. And I'm not afraid to say so!
Just in case Tesco, Leclerc, or Waitrose are unaware; I AM AVAILABLE.
And before you moan about 'social distancing'; I'm assured that this took place about 6 weeks ago.... he just didn't tell me.

I'm a proud Papa.
As long as his talents stretch further than cutting a ribbon you are fully justified to be proud.

They do; I can assure you.
You might not be invited to open a new building but you can open a tin of baked beans or more likely - yet another bottle of French wine! What position does your son hold to be the kind of person who cuts ribbons?
He's my son and heir; what better qualification. Yes, I think I'll have to stick with bottle opening.
"OK, I'm banging his drum..."
Shurley it is every parents right... and perhaps, duty, to bang the drum and unfurl the banners for their offsprung!!?
Oh now I understand why he gets all those invitations. I bet the plaques read "Opened by Lord Cro Magnon's grateful son - April 1st 2020". (Depending on the year)
You should be proud of him, and yourselves. He's an achiever supreme thanks to you too for showing him the way.
In the UK it's still regarded as infra dig to sing the praises of one's own offspring. I did so at my peril.
Yes, he's a good boy. I'm very proud of him.
You have all the rights to be proud of your son.
We have every right to be proud of our children Cro if they do things to make us proud. So well done all round.
I think so. He's always been a good son.
Well done Kimbo.
He certainly does that. Nice boy.
Not many people can boast about being a ribbon cutter! You are right to be proud.
He's getting good at it.
That's my attitude. It's no big deal in itself, but he's my son!
I am smiling with happiness that you are proud of your children.
I always have been, and always will be. Unless of course....
Hello Cro, I cut a ribbon once about 15 years ago Opening a new pub for the miners on a remote site in Western Guinea. What glory! Well done on a good-looking son. Be safe. Jo
Nothing wrong with pride in someone. Pride in oneself is a little dangerous.
Well done you. I have yet to be asked to perform such a task;... and a Pub' too!
I don't have a great deal to be proud about.
How exciting! May I ask why he's in demand as a ribbon-cutter?
He has a famous father!
