Dont worry - he will come back home full of stories and probably shattered with too much staying awake at night chatting to all his mates! LOL Hope you got plenty of washing powder etc for the washing on his return!!! lol Tina xx

	Hi penny, hope he set off ok. I feel for you, my 10 year old goes away with the school in July, only 3 days but I am dreading it. Anyway I'm sure your son will have a good time and be home before you know it. Keep busy. Karen x

Member Since: April 2003 Posts: 5,899 Send Message	Hi Well I managed to contain myself until I got back to the car! They were half an hour late going - which isn't much but its ages when you are holding in the tears! Julie He has gone to Kingswood - which isn't PGL but do similar thing. They do PGL in year 6.
