smallholdingsister's strivings

I feel your pain over the certificates. When I started my PGCE and had to prove I had an English O level it was easier to do a Literacy level 2, which work paid for and did in house, rather than go through the rigmarole of contacting my old school to see if they had kept my 30 year od records!

Not possible to re sit in 6 weeks in your case obviously

Thanks for all replies.
Squirrel so long as you don't reinvent yourself as Secret Spending Squirrel.

Alex having them on your wall at least saves them getting lost.

So I will pay £70 in stupid tax for that. Offset by £25 pay for a review of a science book I hadn't realised I was being paid for.

I have stuck to the programme today. So far.

Good luck with all your new challenges shs

What a pain that is, to have to pay out for re-issues I don't have anything like that on the wall, but its all stacked with all my genealogy files, so at least I could lay hands on them if I needed to.

Hope you find them at the last minute, and don't have to pay after all!

smallholdingsister

I will find them when the new ones arrive.

Yes, that happened with my driving licence.....

We've lost our bounce-back Alton Towers tickets They expire this weekend - I'm expecting to find them next week!:p


Ah well... it's only money at the end of the day... it could be worse..... (OH was getting v stressy about them - I was quite chilled. If the children had really, really wanted to go back I would have just sucked it up and bought some more and chalked it up as one of life's lessons)

Oh no!
Squirrel I fear my driving licence is keeping my certificates company.

I've just paid for a fast track birth certificate for dd at 3x the price as hers has gone. Turns out she only needed a bank statement for address id :mad: where does all this stuff vanish to? And why do I keep insurance policies from cars I've not owned for years, they are always easy to find, try finding a passport when you want it though :rotfl:

Perhaps we should join the kondo thread

Great news on the new job and good luck with the reinvention too!
