Less than a month to go now, and my stomachs starting to churn. How are you all feeling?

Nice one NathAir...lol

Alty Grammar.....DS passed the test but we're out of area.
I've tried to block it out of my head for a few months but I can't conceal my feelings any longer !

Me too Gatley.Are you the ones with twins?

Getting off the train near home tonight (Heaton Chapel), was surprised to see so many Alty Boys there. They were year seven. Certainly six or seven. So a few got in last year, lets keep our fingers crossed.

BTW I spoke to them, lovely boys.One said he gets the train from H/C at 0712

to get the 730 train. They said its great though.

Sure we can sustain ourselves for a few weeks longer.....

Hi Tiddlymum and Gatley, the very best of luck for you both as you await the results. My son will be taking the entrance exam this year for Alty so i've got all this to come!

Good luck to everyone waiting. Last year I was waiting to hear about my DD's place and next year I will be waiting for my DS's place - he will be taking the Sale and Altrincham exams this year.

Hi all, nearly half way through the second week only 2 and half weeks left. I hadn't thought about school since the exam. However, since the onset of February I don't think a day has gone by without me worrying!!!
I just want top know and let it all be over.

If anyone is reading this who went through this procedure last year when did you recieve your emails by. Did they recieve them on Monday or Tuesday.

Bye for now I know I be on here again venting my anxieties. Thankfully , DS is non the wiser . I don't even talk to my husband about schools and if he does not get into Alty it in front of him.
