Caoimhe · 17/02/2012 10:44

stresscity · 17/02/2012 10:45

oh kravings that bloody fantastic.

Seeline · 17/02/2012 10:45

Congrats Kravings!!!!
Still waiting here Sad
Hope we don't share a postie Soup Grin

Caoimhe · 17/02/2012 10:46

stresscity, where is your postie? The waiting is so horrible, I know!

SoupDragon · 17/02/2012 10:46

I am being restrained. Metaphorically, not physically.

Against all protestations to the contrary I am tidying DS1s bedroom for him.

Because it affords a panoramic view of the entire street. I am like a bloody meerkat popping up above the windowsill every 2 minutes :o

kravings · 17/02/2012 10:46

decisions, decisions...too excited to think!
OK - envelope sizes...
Trinity - A4 big white envelope.
Whitgift - A4 big brown envelope.
KGS - A5 white fat envelope.

SoupDragon · 17/02/2012 10:47

Now, another moral dilemma: There is one of the Royal Mail "bag drop" boxes two doors up.

It has a big bag of post in it.

I do not think they are difficult to open with the right tools.

Caoimhe · 17/02/2012 10:48

LOL at you, SoupDragon, doing a meerkat impression!!

Ds1's room is going to be sparkling if the postie doesn't turn up soon!

stresscity · 17/02/2012 10:48

Am I allowed to say Bloody? These are special cicumstances. Soup-find that Postie and 'HAve Him'!!!
I gave mine a £5 tip and Xmas, If he doesnt give me some good news, I want it back!!!

Caoimhe · 17/02/2012 10:50

Go for it, SoupDragon - your need is greater than any niceties.......... Smile

stressederica · 17/02/2012 10:51

Decisions! Decisions! Decisions!
Kravings, what a result!!! Congratulations to your DS for doing so well!
Which to choose? Any scholarship offers?
Just enjoy the day today. Go mad! You have plenty of time to decide.

SoupDragon · 17/02/2012 10:51

DS1s bedroom is only going to be sparkling if the postman takes another fortnight to get here.

kravings · 17/02/2012 10:55

sorry, I am going mad...DH found the W letter on doormat which I had stupidly left behind in my excitement of seeing the wad of latters. I even called W...only to find the letter was already on my doormat. DH thinks I am going doo-lally Grin
ah, never mind, I got all the news I wanted to know, which ever way Grin

Asterisk · 17/02/2012 10:58

Caoimhe · 17/02/2012 11:09

LOL at kravings being blind to the brown envelope!! Grin

Come on posties, I want to hear everyone else's good news! Smile Plus SoupDragon needs to stop tidying her ds1's room or he won't be able to find anything when he comes home............................. Wink
