Gutted!!!

I thought everything was pootling along fine - slowly but fine!! Ha!!! What did I know!!!

We received a letter from the DfES this morning - ooooh exciting we finally have some communication from them!! NOPE!! Its to say there are bits missing from our paperwork dossier and so they've returned our application to our Local Authority. Hopefully that doesn't mean they've sent the whole kit and kaboodle back to our LA, with the potential to lose even more bits of paper!!!

And with it being a Bank Holiday weekend - I can't get in touch with anyone till next Tuesday. Why do these things always happen at a weekend?!?!

To cheer myself up I'm going shopping for something pink and pretty for Kate's new baby :-)
