Is anyone else dying to find out which school they have been allocated?

This is for my PFB which makes it extra difficult for me :(

I can't talk about it in real life as it starts off as a nice casual conversation ending with some delusions of grandeur PFB nonsense Blush

What makes it worse is on my Council's website it says "Late evening on 16 April 2015"... What the hell am I going to do during the day?!?

I haven't even checked time please don't tell me they torture us all day too

Yeah I'm good, trying to keep busy, have got dh off work this week along with the kids so it's kind of hectic instead of peaceful lol. Oh and on our council website it says we will get the emails at 8am so that's something I suppose. But can't help feel I should prepare myself for a huge disapointment??

I hope so x

Gileswithachainsaw · 06/04/2015 18:10

I've just looked, ours says emails sent at 11.00 we can log on from.2

MTWTFSS · 06/04/2015 18:10

That being said, for Secondary allocations it said "Late evening on 2 March 2015" but my cousin found out by email early afternoon so maybe they mean by the evening at the latest.

I'm sure it was in the afternoon when I did it first time round.

I remember literally pacing the front room I couldn't concentrate all day

Gileswithachainsaw · 06/04/2015 18:17

so 11 is an improvement but still torturous

MTWTFSS · 06/04/2015 18:29

I doubt I'll sleep the night before :(

OP posts:
Gileswithachainsaw · 06/04/2015 18:31

I'm not sleeping now :(

between snoring, kids, worry, birds, light mornings I've not had a decent sleep in days.

I wish I could tell you how to feel better Flowers

MTWTFSS · 06/04/2015 18:36

Maybe the night before we can have a separate thread for a sort of "forget about it drinking thread" :) DH can watch the kids, I can enjoy some cider :)

It's a date Smile

MTWTFSS · 06/04/2015 18:45

Plus there are websites you can watch movies online, so we could watch some then afterwards talk about it: like a book club but better Grin

Grin

do you have netflix. We can pick a film.off that?

comedy maybe as we will need the laugh.

MTWTFSS · 06/04/2015 18:52

Netflix comedy sounds good to me :) What time do peoples children go to bed? My kids will be asleep by 8pm.

OP posts:
Gileswithachainsaw · 06/04/2015 18:55

mine are asleep usually by then

MTWTFSS · 06/04/2015 18:58

I want a film which is funny, but also has eye candy please :)

OP posts:
Gileswithachainsaw · 06/04/2015 19:01

Who's your type. male or female eye candy? or both?

MTWTFSS · 06/04/2015 19:09

I like Male, but we better get both so all MN viewers can enjoy :) So we need an all-round hot cast Grin

My type: Chris Hemsworth, Christian Bale, Steve Carell... and Patrick Stewart although I don't think he has appeared in any comedies!

OP posts:
Gileswithachainsaw · 06/04/2015 19:11

Not sure there's anything resembling them.Grin

shame there's no Simon pegg movies on netflix.

There's always stand ups. Jeff Dunham?

of yku think of a movie that fits teh bill I can download. I'll wrack my brains.

This is 40 and made of honor possible Contenders? nice and non descript and requires no thinking Grin

ClaimedByMe · 06/04/2015 19:17

I am in Scotland so slightly different process and waiting to hear if my pfb dd got into the nearest secondary school, she is automatically given a place in the catchment school but its quite far away, we dont have a date though we are just told "start of April" we are 6 days in and I am very impatient!!

Gileswithachainsaw · 06/04/2015 19:24

Good luck claimed I hope you get the school you want

MTWTFSS · 06/04/2015 21:23

Gileswithachainsaw I love films with no thinking :)

I just watched: www.imdb.com/title/tt2637378/ I did not enjoy it :(

Fingers crossed for you Claimed
