Graham Norton Show

Old Blues seem to be making regular appearances on the Graham Norton Show. James D'Arcy was on last week and Taio Cruz (N.B.: Taio Cruz later confirmed to NOT be an Old Blue...Mod, Sep 22) was on last night. Taio Cruz is obviously hugely successful; I thought he came across really well and seemed li...

Re: Times for picking up and dropping off.

5.30? Leave weekends are 8.30, beginning of term 6.30, parents' meetings 5.30. But always feed them - school doesn't apart from toast and tuck (pasta etc if they have it) in House.

Re: Parents evening

Yes they are with you, important that they have input too. Also you won't have a clue who to speak to unless they tell you! Nowhere to dump younger ones, they would have to tag along. But always a very busy few hours. Why didn't you post this on the official parents site?

Re: OB needs your votes !

Amazing - just voted for her. How old is she?
This should go on the CH parents forum. How do I do that? (Presume you can't get on it anymore Mrs C). I've tried copying it but without success, it doesn't copy as a link, just an address.

Re: Tax Credits claimed for childcare at CH?

This seems to have gone away from the subject of the original thread. But I feel I have to comment. Wearing pjs to a disco is meant to be a bit of fun. The idea isn't to wear a negligee but old fashioned cosy type pjs (and dressing gowns) which happen to be in fashion anyway. The OWIE night was a gr...

Re: Sports kit

Just got some DMs on e-bay - half the price and unworn. Worth a look, just make sure you know the size.

Re: Six Nations Rugby

Thanks for the reply. But only seem to be expensive ones left. We were booking tickets for that, when cheaper ones were still available, until the Band was rather reduced in size! About half aren't going, including my daughter! I know other parents booked, only to find out later that their children ...

Anyway my recentish Old Blue son is desperate to get some 6 nations tickets. Original plans fell through so a rather late hunt for tickets, but can't p...

Six Nations Rugby

My son, a recentish Old Blue, is desperate for Six Nations Rugby tickets - any match but preferably at Twickenham or Edinburgh. Original plans fell through which is why he is trying to get hold of some now (but can't pay silly prices). A long shot I know, but can anyone help?

Re: Residential assessment not completed

Oh dear, poor girl. When my daughter did the residential assessment a girl in her group broke her arm during the sports assessment! She had to go to hospital and then home. But she still got in. So fingers crossed and good luck!
