My mother forwarded me an e=mail on this very issue recently .... "Unsolicited calls? The three little words are "Hold on please ...". Saying this, while putting down your phone and walking off (instead of hanging-up immediately) would make each telemarketing call so much more time co...

I think the BBC's coverage ended just before the CH Band!!

The comings and goings of this tread have passed me by today - but I'd just like to add my two-penny's worth (I'm sure there's some clever way to spell two-penny!). I'm lucky that DD's birthday always falls in the October half term - but she's always felt hard done by as she's never had a birthday i...

My DD is a great Racing Demon player and she's joined Barnes B - You never know ...!

Have a lovely day - I hope the weather remains dry!

Good luck to everyone awaiting results .... I can clearly remember how nerve wracking it is. I'll be back in the same position (hopefully) with DD number two next year!

The picture I posted was taken on my phone ... I was quite surprised it came out so well! Just a little bit chuffed with myself that I also managed to find it on my pc and work out how to post it!

Absolutely worth it! It's a very impressive publication! Not what I would call a "school magazine" by any stretch of the imagination!

My DD is in contact daily ... no major routine though - sometimes a text after breakfast, other times I don't hear until after tea! Perhaps raise the issue at half term - I don't think it's much to ask - just some text contact each or every other day. On the subject of things going missing ... so fa...

I grew up near Horsham and clearly remember seeing boys in Housey in the first half of the 1980s in town on Saturdays.

For me - it's a case of no contact means all's well! Had a panic text this afternoon "Mummy, someone's stolen my boots." It transpired she'd left them in the day room!! Maybe set up a routine ... You have text communication after breakfast and after prep ... Just to let you know everything...

May I suggest "lanyard"?!

My dd came home with two bags of washing (she's been told not to trust school laundry with ANYTHING) and her school bag with a bit of "voluntary" homework in. She's gone back with 2 bags of clean ironed clothes, a huge bag of tuck plus some stationery supplies in her school bag! She was up...

Atticus ... This time tomorrow ...
