Here we go........hold on tight!

Big congrats to your DD Kez.

Well done to your DD, Kez! DS is doing alright at the moment but I think the distraction of the Olympics has a lot to do with that. The worst thing though is that he keeps running through papers from his memory of two months ago! Not great as all he remembers is the questions he got wrong. Whatever grades he achieves, I just can't wait until all of this is over!

Congrats Kez100 dd

DS hasn't mentioned results much. He has disappeared off to cub camp to help out, thought it was one night but i think he is planning to stay for a week.

Congrats to Kez dd - may it be the first of many .

Dd has gone to Edinburgh to the fringe and to au pair for a friend, so should be suitably distracted from the angst of waiting.

Only 2 weeks to go!

Kez has your dd joined ephotozine DCs and DH have put some photos on there and especially on the junior gallery they are very welcoming and helpful.

Thanks Bruffin.

Well done Kez's DD! Mine is interested in photography too, so we'll have a look there too, bruffin.
SHe is at her Dad's until tomorrow, then has a party next TUesday with those who went to South Africa. Friends visiting next weekend, then an old friend of mine, then we are there.

Week tomorrow!

This is getting scary now. Especially as my friend saw her sons A level grade boundries today (his actual results are tomorrow) and they are really, really tough. It's something I've been really concerned about happening and now I'm even worse!

Ds's girlfriend gets her results tomorrow, he is going with her for support. He wants me take him to see the Damien Hirst exhibit.
He gets results on Dh birthday and plans are get results, then go for a full English somewhere and hopefully celebrate birthday somewhere not too far as we go on holiday ne,t day.

Just spotted this thread back. Well done to your DD Kez.
DS says his friends are all worried, he doesn't seem bothered. He doesn't know yet whether they are all going in together or not to collect the results.

DD very stressed now. Me too, but trying to appear calm! A Levels at her school (where I teach, hence insider knowledge) were very good, especially at the higher grades, so fingers crossed.

Ds gf got all As for AS today, and Ds school got its best results yet.

Thinking of lining up a tutor for next year- I have seen some great links on youtube, does anyone know how I can book them?
