    just decluttered a few receipts through the shredder while I watched my ebay item sell. Towels needed about half-an-hour in the TD after I froze them on the line today. They'd have dried if my back garden got any sun, but in the winter it doesn't.
    Anyway a good sale - something I won't use has been swapped for something I will use - hard cash;)

    Depends on what last year's cohorts entry stats levels were I think. If they were an academically stronger year on entry then they would have been expected to achieve higher in their GCSEs and thus the CVA could easily be lower (sorry if you know all that, not trying to be condesending).
    The tables can make you go dolally really easily.

    That's exactly what they are doing to me.... data over load....

    Not in the slightest bit condescending - I often struggle with the huge amounts of data. Thank you! That is obviously what they mean.


    I'm about to have a cup of tea, while admiring my row of newly made marmalade.:D I really need a bigger pan for preserve making, but teh cooker instructions said that the maximum was 20cm, or the cooking would be significantly longer. One of the disadvantages of ceramic hob maybe. I think I'll keep looking. It takes ages to make the marmalade when I can only do half quantities, ie 4-5 lbs rather than 9-10lb at a time. especially as I want to make a year's worth hopefully.

    Hello all

    Flew down to the hospital with Mum, Dads breathing is the same but unfortunately his Liver and Kidney are packing up and refusing to be jump started, his oxygen in his blood is low and so is his protein, although he is fully mentally aware the body is just giving up bit by bit. Mum is in a terrible state - I just take it 1 day at a time!!

    Thanks for all the good wishes - have a lovely evening everyone, love and hugs all round

    Helen x
