Hi everyone, I hardly ever go to A and really wanted to go yesterday as so much was glitching, but I did not have the car. Today I would be able to go but it looks like everything is finished? Are the eggs and MD against T finished now, please? thank you for your time.

il have a look today thanks
sounds about right
fab il nip into blackpool for some thank you
morning all.
today is mental breakdown day. (rant alert, just scroll on)
i found out last night that dd4 starts school in september and the closing date has passed. she isnt even in nursery yet because i have been concentrating on getting the other three in school, they were home ed but we have put them back in, dd3 has been in a wile now but the older two were offered diferent schools in diferent towns, the local school only has a year 8 place but no year 7 so i would have to get 4 diferent people to four diferent schools at the same time in the morning, in the winter it would be almost do able with dropping dd3 off at 8.45 dd2 of at 9 and dd1 going on the tram, but as soon as the season starts, traffic into blackpool is a nightmare meaning i wouldnt get them there on time, that or one would be waiting half an hr to get in the gates.
so. dd4, were looking at nursery monday. when did that happen, she is just a baby.
dd3 is sorted
dd2 and dd1. still at home with no suitable outcome in sight
the education office tell me to appeal, the schools say theres no point because theres no room and all the time the two girls are still working from home but each day hoping for news.
Hi short time lurker of this thread here ..... Would getting one of your daughters in your school of choice trigger the 'sibling' priority rule? That would maybe give you more 'clout' for appealing. I'm wanting to change school for 2 of my daughters, the school have said they only have a place for the older one but if I accepted it, it would the trigger the sibling rule which gives more chance of them both being accepted, she also said they don't have to stick to an exact number of pupils xx0 -

Morning all, freezing cold here. I might even be forced to empty and clean the fire out myself and light it - or go out in the garden as I think its warmer out there.
Our internet speed slowed to a snails crawl yesterday so rather than do battle with it again today yet I thought I would make tea and see what you lot are up to
Today is supposed to be the day BT open zone work magic on our underground wires and we get our phone line back. Is anyone taking bets as to weather this will actually happen?

Is there Anything glitching then. That's worth clearing a shelf or 2
I don't understand all the code talk
The fish meal deal, oats so simple and easter eggs.
The other meal deals will glitch if you can find any good comparisons.

I feel your pain. Its a long shot and it depends on how hands on your local MP is but it might be worth while composing an email (or a letter) - set out the entire story. He or she will have an email address on their website.
I email ours regarding the impossible situations with no solutions but at least he investigates and asks questions of the right departments and sends letters on my behalf and he is at least aware of the situations.
Breakfast clubs - do your schools have these? Is there a cost? I am thinking if you could at least drop one or two off very early then at least you would not be totally in the middle of the traffic jams
Even though we live in a small town I had to be out of the house for 8.10 at the latest to get ahead of the traffic to drop my 2 older ones somewhere near high school about 5 miles away. Then I would drive back another 3 miles and hopefully find a space to park about 5 mins away from the primary school with the youngest. Any later than 8.30 and there was no where to park. We then did 20 mins reading time in the car as the primary school did not allow anyone in the playground before 8.50. It used to take me nearly an hour to do the morning school run and it was even more complicated in the afternoon - logistical nightmare“Create all the happiness you are able to create; remove all the misery you are able to remove.
