    This is the news that will buoy you while you prepare for that Appeal.
    Do they still do personal Hearings?
    That's what I remember.

    Oh Ampersand,

    You mentioned the M word. I'm going to have to go out and find Milo now. I lived on it as a kid in Melbourne!

    Nice news for me, too; out of the blue, I have been granted a kitchen!
    Hi A,

    Well done on new kitchen :T

    Yes they do still personal appeals - you offering ;) Have bunged in appeal online late this pm and will follow up in writing, have also put in for continued interest on 'the school' too!!

    Fliss a little better but I think she's still hoping that CI or appeal will work in their favour.

    Thankyou mot - it should be happen within 2 months - can I believe this?
    I even hoovered to celebrate:rolleyes: .
    The shock, your Honour, it must have been.
    I'm filling hottie, prior to bed and lovely reading, but just saw this, from a local-ish Freecycle message list:
    Offered - Manners - Breckland/Dereham AreaMessage List
    < Prev | Next ></DIV>
    Up for offers we have a selection of a few manners, several pleases and
    the odd thank you laying around, I may also have the odd "oh thats
    lovely of you to offer me something for free, thats a great help" in a
    cupboard somewhere. These are free to anyone who feels they need them
    and could possibly make good use of them.

    Hi all,

    Had a lovely day with D - it so relaxing in her company a little like someone else I know Ampersand ;) and your kind regards to her were passed on thank you xx

    Also has a lovely natter with Wol2 whilst sitting the sunshine outside school - what a fab place MSE is I have made some lovely friends :A :A

    On a more sombre note - I have received THE LETTER :T :T :T :T from CAP confirming that the house is ours as soon as electrical works have been completed (not started yet!) so am now able to write to the Educ Auth and The Hemel school requesting that the twins be considered for this school due to its proximity (300 yds or so) - according to the Educ Auth website it could still be some months before we find out if they have been successful so
    ANOTHER hanging around period:confused::confused: .

    Hope you're all ok xx

    Well done!

    On the schools front, the websites always say that you may have to wait to here or they would be inundated with anxious callers. I would wait a week or two to let the schools sort out their lists and then ring the schools and ask for an indication. They will know where you are on the list and how likely that is that they will go that far down their lists.

    Remember, by fixing peoples addresses as of 31/10/07 there will be movement, for every person moving out of HH there will be someone moving in and vice versa, so places will come up.

    Yes, I 've seen rude messages on Freecycle when I offered something and do admit to only dealing with the polite ones!!

    Good luck for weighin do let me know how you get one - email will do if too public on here;) or by phone????

    Thanks for such sense Silvercar and for guiding me - this is all alien to me and I just want to do what is best for the twins xx
