Yesterday I felt okay. Today, I feel restless.

I have just had the satisfactory feeling of boxing all the 11+ papers etc in a box and putting them on a high shelf in the study. My DS wants to burn them but I'm keeping them just in case we have to go down the appeals route... . Hopefully not!

I've put ours away ready for next time. Although the idea of doing this all over again fills me with horror!!!

You know I did the same thing this morning...put the whole lot away and the delight on my ds's face was evident. Our dd can't wait to have a go but I cannot think about that right now. Ds positively bounced into school today. Good luck everyone and lets hope we all get early christmas presents this year!x

Having four children, I am now half way through my 11+ journey (unless my boys are not "grammar boys" of course). Mine are just giong to sit on a shelf and gather dust for about 18 months now. This time in 2015 I will be listing them on Ebay ;0).

You have nearly the same age range as me though, HDQ, as I already have a daughter in Y8 who will be in the U6 when my DS2 sits the 11+.

Mine are 10, 8, 3 and 2. Means I get a bit of a gap between 2 and 3!!

I thought I would feel much better now it is over, but I think I feel a bit churned up because I'm now worried about the results!......I'll just have to try and forget it all now !! I too have 2 more children to get through this ,maybe I'll be a bit more complacent by then ?! On another note, I really love doing the VR papers myself !! It's my little daily brain training session !!So I may keep them out for my use !!
