Rotten timing.......

We're keeping her off school today (she had a small asthma attack yesterday, due to her cold) in the vain hope that it works itself out of her system by saturday. Really don't want to have to wait for the alternative day, as we just want it done with.

Hey ho! these things are sent to try us

If it's any comfort, night before grammar test, DS went down with sore throat, runny nose and temperature. It was also firework night.

Hope she is better soon. Just what you didn't need right now....

Thanks

She seems to be over the worst of it (fingers crossed!), a day off seems to have done the trick so she should be able to go back to school tomorrow and have a day back with her mates before the big day.

Fingers crossed she's fine for Saturday - good luck!!

My DS sits it in the morning

Good luck jester for tomorrow - let us know how he gets on
Us on Saturday

D - hope dd feels better in time for sat

Middle son had sinusitus when he sat the eleven plus. It was touch and go as to whether we would take him or not. We did. When we parked outside the school I dosed him up with calpol, sprinkled him with holy water (it's an Irish Catholic thing) and said a prayer. I think the adrenaline kicked in, he really perked up and seemed fine before the exam and fine when I went to pick him up. He rapidly went down hill in the car and spent most of the following day in bed. He got his top choice. Phew! Such bad luck isn't it when they are unwell. Good luck to your DD I am sure she will be fine.

Thanks everyone

She's gone back to school today and is definitely a lot better.


Good Luck today, Jetster!!

and Good luck to everyone else for tomorrow!
