Therefore there won't be much, if ...
Here's hoping all those awaiting the results get the grades they need to do whatever it is they are (A Level results allowing) planning to do.
Blimey, the ideas for a novel about a small town and the machinations concerning its carnival just gets better and better. Trouble is, it wouldn't be a work of fiction would it?
I don't have an fb account either - but other family members do so I am able to follow EoD postings.
My daughter and her friends were at the Brunnie last night. Daughter says The Brunnie was positively heaving with people and that pram race contestants were calling in there.
