Calling all Ladies that Fly of the teaching profession! (or anyone else if you have input to make - I don't discriminate, y'know! )

Does anyone know of where (preferably online) I can get some practice papers for 11+? DS2 (plus his mate) are practicing at the moment using Demo elements of online downloadable stuff from the 11+ forum (elevenplusexam.co.uk). The demos seem to be very good and they are split into Non Verbal Reasoning, Verbal Reasoning & Maths.

Trouble is they are £20 for each section & although mate's mum will go halves I was hoping for a little more MSE .

Any ideas?

Sorry we don't do 11+, you need an MSEr from a county that does, e.g. Essex. Try on the families and relationships board, or TES forum??

dw unloaded, wm unloaded and on. Mr S here, laters!

I have managed to do 2 x 10 minutes in the garden and decided to tackle the flower beds directly behind the house. They are 3 beds that orignally had yet more roses in them but now are 8 ft high in ground elder and budliea and vicious nettles as well as the roses. My table is set between the flower beds as it is the only level patch of ground but I cannot even get there. I thought that clearing these would allow me to sit in the garden as a change from the lounge whilst I am off sick.

Boy this is hard work.... first session of just 10 mins left me having to sit for over an hour as I had a nasty tremour in the right hand. Have just finished the second session and managed to reduce the first flower bed from 8 ft high to about 3ft high and I have pulled up some of the nettles. I will need to go out tomorrow and cut the bits up to fit in the recycling bin. I can almost reach the table.

The plan is to empty the beds completely and put in the seeds that I have loads of that will give me some scent and colour..... eventually.

Kazw - thanks for the warning. I know a few people have had problems with vista but I've been lucky. I just keep ordering my business cards and 3 fold leaflets whenever they're postage only. It's saving me a fortune! People def need to be careful with them though.

My house is tidy. I can't claim any stars but it's mostly because one or two little bits haven't been done rather than great chunks.

Everyone is out so I had a lovely bath then realised I have a ocado delivery at 930 so had to get dressed again....such is life! The online shop was worth it as I had a £15 off voucher so I've stocked up on things that we use a lot but were on offer.

Right, off to hang the wet clothes on the airer xx

Hello all :wave:

I need to come back into the flylady fold
My house is a disaster.
I did some filing/paperwork last night, so I have made a start
But I think I need a good spring clean to sort out everything...
Hence, I return

:xmastree:

Thanks
Potty

Avoiding the flylady thread ?
Surely not

I just need to make up a list of my own chores to avoid doing now, so that the lists that Pigpen sets are done
There is a method in my madness, honest
