My daughter has lost hers several times over! Each time it has just found it's way back to her, it is very clearly labelled, and it's a very inexpensive phone that does nothing other than calls and text messages. It's not currently working though, for some reason that isn't going to get sorted out u...

Well, the waiting is over at last. It's not good news, but at least I now know.

That looks quite familiar to me too...

My daughter had told me that it was "First come, first served. There are only 30 places..." but as you all say, there was no mention of this in the letter, so to be honest, I wondered if she'd got it right. Obviously she did, partly. If the money and paperwork was handed in on Sunday eveni...

Argh! The waiting is horrible...

I emailed, this is the response I got.

"I will advise you of your next year's bursary award as soon as I am able, I have to re-assess the whole school so it does take a while!"

How do German lessons fit in? Is it instead of French, or as well as?

Ah... I'm not going to be able to get pictures done until the summer holidays now though. I think I'd better email too.
Thanks.

Ah, I was considering emailing too. Any chance you could post what the response is please?

It's awful isn't it. My daughter can't go either, for the same reasons. I can't even tell her in person now, as she's spending the last couple of days of half term elsewhere. She was so excited about it, I'd told her "We'll see once I have the details" but now I have them she's already gon...

The world can't be that small surely!! But if you Brother did go to Scott Lidgett School in Bermondsey ?? then my type of story will come as no surprise... So if you're sitting comfortably.. Being brought up in Bermondsey SE London, the Tower etc was part of our playground/stomping ground I was Age...

Oh, and go on, tell the story...

And another thing, may I ask about your username? My brother went to a school of that name...
