Good luck to all today!

Still silence from the kids’ rooms. Possibly staying in bed until they’ve seen UCAS website? School not open until 9. They won’t want to go together. They haven’t even spoken to each other about it! I have to have independent conversations with them over this.

Boy cat just brought DS a mouse. How thoughtful.

I love that message on UCAS: 'Dont refresh'. Yeah right....

Worst night sleep for a very long time. Finally got to sleep around 3.30 and the dog woke me up barking at a fox at 4.30am so had to get up to quiet the dog.Back to bed around 5.00am then woke up at 7.00am. Stomach is churning..

DD currently still asleep, I shall wake her up a 8.00am. Her plan is to look at Ucas at 8.15, then we are all going into school to get results. We may or may not be then going out for a nice brunch or lunch somewhere depending if she is in clearing or not. We only found 1 place in clearing that she would consider (foundation at Sheffield), so it's going to be a nightmare if she hasn't got into Nottingham or York. She is pretty confident mostly that she will be fine but that worry re C in Biology still creeps in at times.

Good luck all x

Ds1 still asleep.

Ds is in the shower. I’m ridiculously nervous. T-25 mins. Good luck everyone!!!

Just dropped my DD and her best mate at school, I am confined to the car while she goes in. Fingers and toes crossed.

Clare Marchant (UCAS) on R4 - 2/3 into Firm. Keep the hope!

No sound from DSs room.

Am sure it won’t be like this next week for DD and GCSEs!

DS got up then went back to bed to 'relax'. He will have to be quick with his shower ..

🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞

DS fast asleep. Promised I would not wake him until 8.15. Going to fire up the coffee machine.

Time is not moving in this current universe😫

After all the hard work fingers crossed for our kids

Been to the loo 3 times……

Even slower in the car 😬

Miranda, thank you for getting me out the door today. Slow run, but nevertheless, killed some time :)

Turns out DS has been up since 6 after all, he heard me go and feed the cats, waited for me to go back up and then slipped downstairs.

Just woke DD up as we originally planned to be at school for 8. She was fast asleep so looks like we’ll be here for ucas at 8.15am first before leaving for school

On the flip side in the last half an hour I have found out a lot about random universities, including the financial incentives for Scottish universities for DC from elsewhere.

I hear sounds of a moving DS…

I woke dd at 7.30, she didn’t seem too happy about it and I’ve heard nothing since. I can see we’ll be waiting for the email at 10..

UCAS has changed to available in 2 mins. Arrgh.

DS’s school was emailing his results at 8am - he’s just text from his room (probably best) saying there is nothing in yet…

Not good here, dropped a grade in each subject.
