Because of the mysterious popularity of these threads which no-one is actually responding to, here's the Seventh Thread.

The other ones have all filled up, but I'm not at all sure how.

(I have done this by proxy for VanillaSugar).

Come on people! Call to action here!

We have Being's* wedding to organise and lots of other good stuff.
AGL's holiday and exam results to get through.
Portia's love life and her DD's exam results.
Jess budding romance with Bambi Co-op Boy.
Better's quest to wear that blue bridesmaid's dress.
My addiction to posting memes which seems to be welcome on these threads.

LET'S GO...!!!!

Jess oh yeah that would've been right up AGL street

BeingATwatItsABingThing · 17/08/2016 21:00

She is both ridiculously cute and a complete monster at the moment. I want a diddy one again!! Sad

PortiaCastis · 17/08/2016 21:00

Better I hope my explanation made a little sense.

ItShouldHaveBeenJess · 17/08/2016 21:01

portia. Lots of shirtless eighteen year old males..... Wish I hadn't got so drunk, instead of appreciating the view a little more!

PortiaCastis · 17/08/2016 21:03

Being I love snuggly new borns.

PortiaCastis · 17/08/2016 21:06

Jess I was a Mummy at 18 and missed the funSad

RedOnHerHedd · 17/08/2016 21:14

I'm back. My steak and ale pie was amazing!!! DH said he'd happily pay £12 for it in a pub. I said he could still pay if he wanted to. I'm waiting.

RedOnHerHedd · 17/08/2016 21:15

Even the kids asked for more!

Bettercallsaul1 · 17/08/2016 21:16

Sorry, Portia - I didn't see your explanation! That is all new to me - I didn't even know if 9 or 1 was the highest mark! It is confusing if all subjects are not being marked on the same scale yet - it's always hardest for the kids sitting exams during the transitional period. But at least all the ones in your daughter's year are in the same boat!

ItShouldHaveBeenJess · 17/08/2016 21:17

portia. I don't know. You're still in your thirties; I am 41 with a four year old. Swings and roundabouts, I guess. But I sure do miss dancing around with shirtless young men.

VanillaSugar · 17/08/2016 21:18

Good god I have a lot of catching up to do!

Mycatsabastard · 17/08/2016 21:23

Teen gets her A level results in the morning. I am driving her to school and console/celebrate. Fingers crossed.

Then dp and I are official guests of the Royal Navy tomorrow afternoon/evening. Much free booze, rides of boats and ships, more free booze, men in uniform and Royal Marine band. We still have no idea how we are getting home :o

Bettercallsaul1 · 17/08/2016 21:24

Vanilla - Hi! How are you and your daughter? Are you safely ensconced in your £300 hotel?

RedOnHerHedd · 17/08/2016 21:27

BastardCat if you take me, I'll get you a taxi home.

BeingATwatItsABingThing · 17/08/2016 21:27

Portia, I was a mummy at 19. I missed most of the "fun".

Bettercallsaul1 · 17/08/2016 21:28

So many anxious Mums and daughters, cats! Such a horrible, stressful time. Sounds as if you'll be in for a jolly afternoon, though!

Bettercallsaul1 · 17/08/2016 21:32

You are suddenly very popular, cats! Grin

PortiaCastis · 17/08/2016 21:35

Better Yes they are the first year to come under the new marking umbrella. Nobody seems to be clear how different results will be interpreted. The Student room site seems confused also.
Dd needs her Maths Economics and Business to carry on at A level. Here's hoping she gets them but if not there is advice at her sixth form. I'll take your advice and wait for a call or text.
Sort of wishing this was next year and then we'd have uni to worry about not silly changes in marking The Exeter site is clear and informative and I know there are admission people on Mn I could ask if I need to. Just need to get dd to apply to more unis

PortiaCastis · 17/08/2016 21:37

Crikey cats you are swish. Best of luck to your dd.

PortiaCastis · 17/08/2016 21:38

Being Glad I'm not the only one 😂

PortiaCastis · 17/08/2016 21:40

Jess I have a man who is famous for being shirtless and I'm not sharing

Bettercallsaul1 · 17/08/2016 21:44

I'll have my fingers crossed for her, Portia and I'm sure everyone else here will too. It's amazing how close you can get to feel to people you've never met in the flesh!

PortiaCastis · 17/08/2016 21:44

Hi Vanilla in your vair naice hotel
Hi red your pie sounds delish

AverageGayLad · 17/08/2016 21:45

PortiaCastis · 17/08/2016 21:46

Thats very true Better and thanks
