Re: sock ties and other miscellaneous queries

well seeing as the bible was only £2.40, I think we'll keep it, you never know, it might come in useful for crosswords/quizzes :D

Re: Academic level for entry at 11

Just to let you know, we had parents evening the other day and my son is currently just hitting level 5 in literacy, considering he's just got in :D that's probably the level you need (luckily not level 6)

Re: sock ties and other miscellaneous queries

The male members of the family also have their own 'type'of sock, large black ones for husband, black for eldest son and navy blue for little son. M&S also print the sock size into their junior socks which helps :D

Re: sock ties and other miscellaneous queries

Ahh, now I hadn't considered GCSE music :D That does put a different spin on things.
