Anyone in Scotland got a DC starting Primary One next Monday, come and hold hands with me

[sweetkitty]

My PPPPFB DD1 is starting "big" school on Monday

Anyone else?

Am I going to be a blubbing wreck?

Ooh I used to live in Livingston (when I was young) and more recently Broxburn!!

Ds is going with his snack in his lunch box (him), a water bottle with diluting orange in it (I think they get water bottles but not 100%), gym shoes, pencil case. I know he won't need the gym shoes, but he's been helping me pack!

Ooooh Haggis, I have always lived in Livingston, maybe out paths have crossed.

Betty we are at Peel Primary. Please feel free to tell me to bog off

We have to have gym shoes at school all the time as it's open pla.

Maybe!! Although it is far bigger now that what it was when I was young! I went to St Andrews in Howden....??

I have seen a few folk on here from Livingston but i don't usually mention it,sorry Betty

No way, We are at Peel Primary as well. I have one going into p4 and one going into p2

why you sorry??

Can I join the hand holding! DS1 starts P1 on thursday so a few days after most here... He's only in for one and a half hours for the first 2 days then half day til end September ish... Feel kind of OK about it but I know I'll be a bit of wreck when I see him disappear as he's a very gentle wee soul and will be anxious! And I wont be there to hold his hand and make him feel better!

Don't know about gym stuff, she was given a special drawstring bag with a school T-shirt in it on a visit and has her gym shoes and shorts in it, I am assuming they won't have gym on the first day as it's so short.

Don't know about a water bottle now might just leave it. DD1 will be a nightmare with a water bottle, she will drink it in 2 mins flat then need the toilet every 5 minutes.

expat - losing her first baby tooth aww, I hope the tooth fairy has been on duty tonight, DD1 cannot wait to lose hers, keeps telling me they are wobbly. Don't talk to me about being broody DD3 is 13 months now.

We're in Lanarkshire BTW

Gal, hope I havent scared you off.

Really Betty??

OMG wonder if we know each other lol?

Just sorry to put you on the spot iykwim? Some folks would rather not be known out of MN?

Where about in Lanarkshire??

I am not easily scared honestly lol.

This thread moving fast are we all a bit anxious tonight

haggis - just outside Motherwell

Ooh. I used to live in Hamilton!! (We moved aroud a lot with my dads job in case you are thinking "christ she has lived everywhere!!")

I have just relaised I have forgotten to iron the shirts! I had the iron out earlier but only did nametapes!

Normally our guys wear polo shirts but the 2 older ones want to go in shirt and tie for the first day back.....

Gal, am going off line now but if you put a message on this thread I will read it tomorrow and will reply. Its nice to know there are others out there from the same place as me. Look forward to speaking more on here

Hmm i will be looking at everyone on Tuesday morning with suspicion lol Betty

weegiemum, you slacker!

Hamilton very near to me, I'm not from here originally but am here as DP works in Edinburgh and we wanted somewhere inbetween Glasgow and Edinburgh but towards Glasgow IYSWIM?

Originally from Ayrshire but ended up here via Glasgow, Cambridgeshire and London.

Now I am thinking do I put her in her cardigan or not? Probably be too warm will just do blouse, pinafore and tie with blazer, she hates her school jacket as she calls it.

Yes lets have a secret wave or something Betty?
