Oh my dearies, I feel for you all. Just 18 days more...
I'll be here as well, don't know why. Perhaps to share the joy or to offer support or perhaps I'm lonely? :? :lol:

Good luck everyone !!

I am with you too.. staying up.. holding virtual hands.

I am still totally incapable of believing that my DS will be able to go to CRGS, so much so the CSSE letter is in a frame in his room and I have to look at it probably once a day ! Bear in mind we just sold our house and moved for this .. but thats not enough for me. DS has also been offered a Scholarship and I can't reply to that letter either.. I am in limbo, like you.. as I am just not a Belieber until I get the offer.

Is that enough do you think, or should I get more gin? :D :D

Ha ha my friend is like that for her ds - I keep asking her "Did you put it first on the CAF? Then he is in!" :lol:

Wish I had a back up with WHSG that I knew was a certainty :( Still she liked the comp.

Decided to go to one of those Train to Teach Roadshows in London on the 1st to take my mind off it all - quite looking forward to it, so need a change of career / actual career again!

edited to correct spelling of WHSG - duhhh! My nerves are getting to me!

I had to get them to resend my password as had forgotten it. Yes you are right they haven't put it up early and not told us - I hoped for that as well :lol:
