GCSE Results thread and starting 6th form

[WitchofScots]

Follow on thread from the GCSE exams and proms thread. For hand holding and recommendations of wine/chocolate/biscuits to get through the post results stuff.

Fantastic motherstongue, really pleased for you and DS.

My phone has started beeping with texts. My poor friend is going with her DD to London today for Apprenticeship interview after A level disaster last week and her DH taking their other DC to get GCSE results.

DD wants to leave a bit later as doesn't want to be first in.

Congratulations motherstongue's DS!!! And well done to you for supporting him. You can relax now! How does it feel?

Well done to your ds motherstongue, great news

Great news motherstongue!

Spud

Results are in.. Delighted.
Phew.

Well done, motherstongue's DS and family.
Waiting for DH to finish his breakfast ~ he's now decided he's coming to the school with us.
DD's just done the, 'I think I've failed everything' speech.

All ok here too. Sixth form place secured.
Good luck all.

Brilliant Savagebeauty, this is a lovely start.

Spud.

I have a tendency to laugh hysterically at inappropriate moments under stress so need to keep a lid on that.

Spud, it feels great! I'm so relieved. I had a restless night last night worrying he wouldn't do as well as he was hoping but he did brilliantly so we are about to do the Bucks Fizz and we'll be able to celebrate at lunch today at his favourite restaurant. Lots of calls coming in from his friends too and everyone seems to be very happy with their results. I hope that bodes well for everyone else on here...

Great news motherstongue, Savagebeauty and JugglingChaotically :)

You must all be so relieved and happy.

I'm being distracted by seeing the theatre company from my dd's drama group on Sky News.

Motherstongue, that sounds wonderful!

Well done motherstongue, savage and juggling's children!
Relax now - and then let's do it all again next year with ASs!

Juggling that's great

DD has lost her fricking shoes .

Shanghai I'm laughing hysterically about the idea of AS....

Well done to Juggling and Savage's kids too.

DS has drum and base on and it's not even 9 o'clock, the place is jumping.

Oh good grief, after the hassle of yesterday and "the list " I've been blocked out of mn, it's taken me nearly an hour and in end I've re registered new!! I didn't need that this morning. ....

Well ds has gone. I'm at home been told in no uncertain terms not to drive up, I'm dressed and ready waiting for a call, to see if I need to fly up there and sort things or I can just enjoy my coffee. . Good luck everyone

results at 10 here and knowing ds he will dilly dally and be home for 4pm! trying to stay calm. lovely news on this thread. well done to all. slightly alarmed by reports in the news this morning that results were down. really hoping that's not true.

Heart pounding in car. She's gone in.

Couldn't log on for a while and that distracted me .

Odd boots thanks for that phone number.

DD results at 1045. She's planning to go to the head of sixth form and say now that she can't take biology there will never be a cure for cancer! I think she's a bit upset about it .

She's going to ask if she can start with 5 subjects and drop one by half term.

Another in the car, she looked terrified bless her and stalled on getting out.

Phew!!!! All passed, he's so calm.

Feeling sick. she's gone in. i'm at work

Yay, brilliant AP

sugar just so pleased. Bit of an upset with his drama which despite his top grade in the practical and course work he got a c!! He's not happy but it's a pass and he doesn't want to take it further so it's all good.

Great news AuntP. Drama is one that gets heavily moderated, annoying as it is so subjective but as you say, it's a pass.
