Hey
I have used this song before.
My last email dropped. It was not great. It was deliberate.

Lee Kwan Yew (the father of the modern Singaporean state) was the second smartest person at school, he married the smartest. I am doing the same, to be clear it is not Matthew Jukes (I went to an all boys school), but a lady who is an amazingly beautiful soul and incredibly intelligent. I was not even the second smartest guy at school. Anyway you get my point.
Thanks
Nish
