Scramble Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 Our school is setting work through the school's website. Maybe you could ask about a similar system? Easier than asking to reschedule the whole of the country's exams Enjoy the panto Lewis, ours was really good last night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClaireG Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 Have fun at the panto Lewis and enjoy your curry! Did any of you young ones have to do a test before you started high school? As part of the admissions procedure. Adam has to go to his prospective high school tomorrow for cognitive testing. Its also meant to be so they can take a proportion of pupils across the ability range. He has a statement of eductational needs so official doesn't have to do the testing but the school have said it would be useful to them for him to do it. Us parents have to wait in the resturant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scramble Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 I didn't have to do test to get into high school, but once we were there we did do CATs for science, english and maths...that's how they put us into our sets. Good Luck for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lewis Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 Have fun at the panto Lewis and enjoy your curry! Did any of you young ones have to do a test before you started high school? As part of the admissions procedure. It was quite good ... seems really wierd to be watching, went backstage and said hi to everyone Me We had to do an entrance exam for school ... I did 3 for 3 different schools, and the one I'm at was 1st choice and I got in, so don't know if I passed the other 2. I did do practices before (you can buy packs from WHSmith) but found it ok Good luck - I was on the gate letting all the year 6's into school for ours and the parents always seem more stressed than the kids! I'm sure he'll be fine Not good Debs! Hope you feel better tomorrow ... well today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClaireG Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 DH has just taken DS as i'm feeling really awful Sorry to hear your poorly too Debs. We've had more snow overnight so have about 3 inches now and it's still snowing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted January 9, 2010 Author Share Posted January 9, 2010 Poor Claire - must be daunting having to go to the vampires. I hope they leave you with some blood. And poor Debs too. All those feeling poorly - get well soon! Or else! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClaireG Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 I'm used to the vampires now and don't really mind them. I hate having to take tablets though. I think i've got a urine infection which will mean more tablets Diabetics are more prone to them and i have lower back and stomach pain, only got about an hours sleep. I'll get DH to take me to the walk in centre when he and DS get back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Space Chick Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 My stomach feels like Joe Calzaghe has been using it as a practice punching bag I was supposed to be going to football and seeing my sister today, I am staying in bed instead. However, my sister text me last night and apparently 3 of our players have come down with a stomach bug, so I am not alone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClaireG Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 Well I hope you are up and running before long - otherwise you'll have to borrow Cookie's commode with wheels.

Valkyrie Posted January 9, 2010 Author Share Posted January 9, 2010 Nothing like a bit of cold to make the body shrivel so as not to work as required! Pity it doesn't work that way with my fat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Chick Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 If I thought the cold would get rid of my fat, I would be out the garden in a shot However, I am staying in bed in the warm I have managed some scrambled Grace egg on toast and a glass of half juice half water, so thats not too bad. Phil has taken the girls some nice warming pellet porridge was some added veggies and they seem OK. Amazingly we have had 4 eggs today (only had 1 yesterday), I wish they would conserve their energy for keeping warm. I have been giving them loads of mealworms and corn in the hope it will slow their laying down and keep them warmer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 We dont' have a problem with them conserving energy we haven't had eggs for weeks I think are getting old and the others are too young ... father said he wants to replace Lewis wasn't very happy ... they're pets not machines Lewis is thinking we may need some hybrids late this year/next year to keep the eggs coming in when retire. Apparently if you sit in a cold bath for half an hour you lose 600 calories - they were talking about it at school yesterday . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted January 9, 2010 Author Share Posted January 9, 2010 Just a few more stone to go - I wonder how long I would have to sit in the bath to shift my bulk? I'd probably warm the water up rather than cool me down - especially with those nice little flushes that seem to happen on odd occasions. Nah not going to suffer half an hour in a cold bath. Although imagine how warm the air would feel when you get out. Just Tipsy and Kitty laying at the moment. Sioux has been off for a while, Apache dropped out last week and now so has Squirt.

ClaireG Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 Well after all that, she couldn't find any sign of infection I'm still in quite a bit of pain though. Have been advised to drink as much as i can and go back tomorrow if i don't feel any better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Space Chick Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 I am still in a lot of pain, so I can sympathise Claire. Phil tried to make me eat some tea, but I have no appetite Out of hours GP's are not the best in my view, not because they aren't good Dr's but because they haven't got your full medical details.
