So proud of him!

Happy, Sunny/rainy the weather can't decide, Tuesday!

I'm afraid posts are rather sporodic at the moment! I am frantically trying to squeeze in as many driving lessons as I can before the big T! My mock didn't go so great but hey! it was my first time so I didn't really expect too much.

Another results day in our house. The bigger little brother had his GCSE results today. After a whole day yesterday of doubting he came out with a set of grades that are really great, much to his surprise! He is one of those annoying people who doesn't think he did as well as he could and comes out with amazing grades. Toooo clever!

So.. he got... 4 A*'s and 6 A's which is really fantastic! What made us laugh was that he got A*'s in the subjects he least expected such as chemistry!!!

As is tradition my mum made him a cake with the results iced on top.

She has decided that she will make a cake each time one of us gets A2 results or GCSE results as they are the "big ones"! Bless her!

Very excited tomorrow as this girl is coming round...

Expect plenty of photos of giggling, excited girls. We are heading to London tomorrow to check out some galleries and do a spot of shopping!! Should be great!

Anyway, hope everyone is having a great day! Thanks for stopping by!

Hooray! Congrats to your bro :-)

And better to have a slightly dodgy mock test and a perfect real thing than the other way round, right? xx

Well done to your brother! All A's (and A*) is just amazing! The cake looks great... (I put a brownies recipe on my blog btw - dead easy and just right for a visiting friend).

Best of luck with that driving test.

Have a great day with your friend tomorrow.
