UCAS 2009 - Done and dusted

OK, almost 8 months have passed since the last post and you're all very deserving of an update.
All is well as Maddy continues to thrive at Greenhead with a very promising outcome from the A2 module exams in January. Top grades throughout in the summer are not to be taken for granted. There's no complacency, but it's looking a very realistic prospect now.
That's probably just as well as, after the trauma of this year's intensively competitive UCAS round, Mads is basking in the glory of 3 medicine offers,...including, most valuably, her first choice.
So, the University of Birmingham Medical School beckons for late September. Time now to address the vexed issue of finance, sort vaccinations, accommodation etc.
A fabulously weird combination of elation and relief from family and friends (and Mads herself) at this very poignant achievement.
More later.....
