Wow! DS is so lucky that I’m normally here to get him up otherwise it’d be the same story here! Wonder if they’ve told their parents?!

I guess something in the panini didn’t agree with her. Talk about bad timing! Anyway, she did the exam, the exam office arranged for a fan and sick bowl, and thought it was ok. We will see on results day.
Hope everyone else is ticking along ok.
Uni wise we are still waiting for details for accommodation which they said would probably be the beginning of July, keeping our fingers crossed the 2nd and 3rd years haven’t snapped it all up already.
Oh no- that sounds awful for her. I hope she is feeling better now.

My DD now has her end date-21/6. Which is at the beginning of all the orals rather than at the end. And thankfully at 2pm and not 8am as it is in the center of town which can be a nightmare in rush hour.

We also managed to get to London last weekend and visited her firm choice which thankfully she loved! Fingers crossed she gets the results she needs.

Last exam today! She is exhausted following her dance show at the weekend, 40 dances in 2 days and didn’t get to bed til gone midnight last night. Filled her with caffeine this morning and keeping our fingers crossed. On the plus side she won an award and the show was spectacular- down with a bump now though. Hope everyone else is going on ok, I believe a-levels finish on Friday although that might depend on exam board I guess.
We are still waiting for the accommodation list and uniform list to be published so a bit stuck until we get those. I envisage a very busy couple of weeks once they arrive.

Last exam today here as well. Also the last day she ever needs to go into school. They did have a leavers assembly a few weeks ago, but they knew they would be back for exams. After today, that's it. I think that struck her quite hard last night.

The have prom in a couple of weeks but it's not at school, so the end of an era.
