Oh and don't forget, last one to leave polishes bench and locks up!

The farm is on the school grounds really or it was when the school was open.

Have you seen what the mansion looks like lately, is it a state there, sorry for the bombarding questions

There are a lot of buildings surrounding the Langleybury childrens farm. I've never visited the farm or looked at the buildings very much though. Just shot past on the road. Google her school and have a look. Then tell me all. I'd love to know. How close she is to the old school etc. It's cool thinking DD is at a school right by where you once went. Very cool.

That school looks great Tea :)

I lost you! You fell off my radar!

Where are all of you? :)

I bought this coat for DS and it just came in the mail today. What do you think? It reverses to plain navy. I got it for a steal from ebay. Yay me!

Wow...I'm a boring person. :o

Your link won't load for me yanky - navy is always good though imo!

How are you? :)

Good. A bit stressed! This getting to work and school on time while keeping up with everything is hard.

Does this one work?

Ooo lush coat! The first link worked for me.

Thats a lovely coat cheerful

Tea i had a look at google maps my old school is just on the other side of the trees, have a look, the mansion is covered up at the point that pic was taken, it really is such a waste it was a lovely school, i only asked cos i been having an odd feeling about it, something is making me feel like i want to go back into the mansion, its spooking me real bad, now i sound like a nutter .

I'll send it to Tea when for her DS when mine's done with it, and when her DS is done with it, it should just about fit Baby Jamie... :o

Tired I always sound like a nutter. Don't worry!

Ooops, strike that first when!

Yay that means i'll get my hands on it..............eventually

Sometimes nutty can be good cheerful wish i could shake this feeling though, did you have a look on googlemaps?

Ooooooo lovely jacket - my dh has something similar by North Face!

Ds is unwell again won't eat, looks pale, feels sick

warm here again today - will potter about in the garden later when I have finished on MN

Just popping by to say HELLO :)

I'll be back later to catch up xx

Helooooooooooooooooooooooo elmo :)

I'm still a bit lost looking at Google Earth pictures on which building it is. But the Langleybury childrens farm is open at weekends in October and is peanuts. So come over and visit it and have a peak whilst there, as I think the building is on the Farm land now iyswim?

Maybe it'll bring you peace to do this and dispel the dreams?

Agree with Tea, Tiredmum, I think you should go there if it is not too far for you. Wonder why something is drawing you to it? I think those things are curious...

OK when I collected DD from school I parked by the childrens farm and took a few pictures. I've added them to my profile. It's just what I could see from the road. Tell me more Tiredmum x

I still cant explain the feeling, tea you know if you carry on up the lane and turn left, that is the drive to the farm and the school, the farm is on the left and if you carry on past that the mansion is sunk back just slightly on the left to go onto the main school grounds you just keep on past the mansion where the driveway carries on and thats it really, all i know if your on google maps that the mansion is covered with white stuff, and the rest of the school grounds is to the left and down slightly, i knew that the loyd family also built the church, some say there is a secret passage built under the mansion all the way down to the church. All the school is still there it just closed in 96, which was my last year at school. They did film hope and glory there and there are some pictures of the inside of the mansion on a film location site in case others wanted to use it or the school for filming, it doesnt look like its changed, its still as creepy, you should try looking for it, i cant link it, sorry, anyways i better stop this essay, maybe i should go back.

Ooo xpost i'll have a quick look at pics

If you feel like reading an incredibly long post, feel free to weigh in on this

Tiredmum is it a good or bad feeling?

Oooh Tiredmum i think you should follow your instincts here and re-visit the place

Gomummy - I've posted on your thread xx sorry you are in that situation lovely.

pours for everyone x

Thanks Elmo. Think I'll soon be needing more.
