My thoughts exactly! Sent the form on saturday evening and still haven't received the envelope they're supposed to send back :( If it doesn't arrive with this mornings post I'll be on the phone straight away!

Didn't have to put one in. I just wanted that extra peace of mind. I take it you didn't include one Milla.

PHEW. Phoned up. They've received it.
What went unsaid, of course, but thrummed heavily down the phone lines, was the notion of bright kid, thick mum. :cry:

SAE ????? Did have that thought at 3am having posted said form night before! Only posted it first class as Recorded seemed to offer no more security (they can only sign for it if it gets there!) and Special Delivery was nearly a fiver :shock: - thought I'd start saving for the uniform etc now!

Presumably (and this is a BIG presumption!) as you either had to accept OR decline on that form, if GCC don't receive anything from you (lost in postal system) they WILL conact you to find out what your DC is doing come September??????

Or am I placing too much trust in common sense? :?

Now where's the number for Shire Hall?
