AGL I Hoover the tv stand first with the brushy attachment then I'll dust it later. I just shook half a packet of biscuits worth of crumbs out of the rug. Bloody kids and their biscuits!!

Oh my poor little girl. A*AB & she's srill holding out for her first choice university. The regrade came back with the same mark so she can't reapply for the same course. She's currently looking at different courses which have lower entry requirements. Sad😢😢😢😢😢😢

She should be so HAPPY. 8 marks. That's all it was. 8 marks over two years 😢

vanilla such a shame for her. Even worse that not that long ago there wasn't even a distinction between A and A* so AAB was the most any uni could ask for (bar oxford and Cambridge). I hope she gets a course she's happy with.

AGL its crap looking for rented. Couldn't your support worker get you put as a priority for a housing trust/ association property?

Portia I had phone calls off someone about my computer too. I had him going for ages and then when he asked what computer I had I said it was a pink one. He asked what make and I said my granddaughters V-Tech, ages 3-6. He put the phone down.

Btw I'm not a grandmother and I have no idea if pink V-Tech's come in age 3-6. But I had great fun.

Vanilla hope your DD gets where she wants.

AGL keep looking.

MyCats I don't have any cream cheese here. So I squashed all the bits into cookie cutters to make them back into whole biscuits again. Waste not want not! Grin

What a total bastard! He's trying to scam you and has the audacity to swear at you for realising.

Commiserations, Vanilla - it's rotten luck when that happens. "So near and yet so far" is particularly bitter when your DD had set her heart on that particular course and Uni. if she's just heard, she'll need a few days to mourn that course before thinking seriously about another one.

Vanilla How long did the remark take? I've asked for one of mine to be remarked.

Blue I'm a very high priority on home options, but that doesn't help if there are no properties :(

AGL so you're in one of those areas, where housing trust properties aren't just scarce, they are virtually none existent then? That sucks.

Where I live, as long as you can get listed as a priority, then you can get something decent.
