Re: The Morning After

Actually it's my younger ds who's struggled the most, he was in floods last night and this morning, which has meant that I haven't concentrated on how I'm feeling!

But knitted Housey Frog went to school with him and he's much better now (helped by the 2 friends he has round :lol: )

Re: The Morning After

Oh dear... I've just had a call from the health centre to say that my daughter is there as she has been sick a couple of times. I'm pretty sure it's just "nervous tummy" as it's not unusual when she is nevous/excited for her to be this way. I even suspect that it was the case when she had to leave ...

Re: Desperately need some help...

FWIW (and someone might have already written this), after the initial panic with woven name tapes my mother got a long white tape (bias binding comes to mind) and used a sewing machine to fix the woven tapes to the bias binding with long gaps in between. In many cases the bias binding could be ...

Re: Admissions

Hi VictoriaMum

I ditto your sentiment's entirely! It's an amazing school and I feel privileged to be a part of it. Over the last few months as I have spoken to various people it has dawned on me that it's a rather infamous establishment. I didn't realise that it was quite so well know outside of ...

Re: Desperately need some help...

Hi Fairy that's fab, thank you. What style trunks did you get? I'm worried about getting him boxers if everyone else is wearing 'Daniel Craig' style speedo's! Do you know if there is a regulation style? And are they meant to have a separate swimming towel?

Once again thank you for your help
