Fairyelephant, I'm in the same boat; anxiously checking out the forum on a daily basis. Like it would help! :roll:

I know trying to restrain myself and focus on other things... but the lure is strong! Hopefully we'll have some fingernails left by the time we get there.....

We are waiting too...I read the fat envelope v thin envelope thread and laughed out loud in a very quiet hospital ward ! It was a relief to know that I am not alone.........I have two dc's and need a year 7 and a year 9 place for them this September. Stupid question I realise but we have assumed that the majority of entrance exam results/conditional offers come out before March 1st? Is that correct? Good luck to all waiting x

Glad I'm not the only one! :lol:

Sorry for the delay in replying, fellow waitees - for 24 hours i couldn't log on (caused mild hysteria, did it mean somehow DD won't get any offers......?????) but actually discovered it must be something to do with the iPad, PC fine. Phew.

Offer day is 2 weeks today for us!

p.s. tigger2 I hope you are ok, mention of a hospital ward in your post was a bit worrying.

loveyouradvice - try painting your nails!

nonethewiser - have eaten my body weight in biscuits these last few weeks, I think its fine, the nervous energy will burn it all off!

I'm Catholic and I have.

(It does mean the vodka takes a faster effect though.)
