We’re waiting for Eastleigh too. But all this wishing and hoping is sure tiring now. 😭 There are no guarantees. By this time last year Eastleigh was out and only London was remaining.

Last year this time we were waiting for the London results and I’m not 100% sure but I think nothing came out in the first weekday after the weekend of the White Lodge summer fair. They might or might not send anything. Bummer, I know.

On my form there were two. I’m 100% sure.

It just came to my mind that RBS’ yearly picnic and open day at White Lodge is TOMORROW, Saturday. Maybe their entire admin staff is getting ready for that? 😱 That would explain the delays. Any of YOU coming? I was only gonna go if we get into Associates, but if someone from here wants to meet there I might consider going.

Under the cloak of anonymity may I be arrogant and say: if it’s a yes, I don’t mind waiting, but if it’s a no, I’ll be twice as cross.

My daughter is very easygoing and would shrug it off. It’s ME I’m worried about over the weekend if the results are not in. I hate waiting... for anything. This is now interfering with my work, I need this done and over with one way or another. I’m ready to celebrate, I’m ready to say “oh well, what’s next”

It’s awfully quiet today too. Im slowly going crazy I think. Anyone from Eastleigh here, also on the edge? My number 89 mate? 🤗

You’ll get your results with the London batch, hopefully next week.

At this point he might be overconfident about tomorrow. Tell him THAT! 😈

Today was frustrating, waiting for the Eastleigh results in vain... I can’t believe nothing was sent. I keep thinking that they were arguing around a table whether to accept my daughter or not. 😂

Me too, but with every minute less so.

I don’t feel lucky. I feel like a mess. 😂 They’ve skipped days in the past, e.g. last year. This audition was on 13th May, exactly a month ago in Eastleigh... it seems like ages ago.

It’s so easy to get all tangled up, isn’t it. I’ve sworn so many times I won’t stress or obsess about this. Told myself over and over again that it’s totally OK either way. I actually believe it too. Usually. And look at me now. LOL.

When Eastleigh comes out you’ll know it from me within seconds. You here are the only people I can share it with, as I keep my email refresh obsession secret from everyone else in my life and DD is at school till late today. 😉

Geez, they’re not rushing these emails out are they... 😭 On the edge about Eastleigh.

And let’s not forget all the other wonderful dance disciplines! Almost all successful dancers started out with ballet!

Yes. That’s what’s been happening... but there’s always an element of surprise. We auditioned in Eastleigh for a London place, so hopefully I can confirm later on today.

You’ll get your results with the London batch, hopefully next week.

Teachers send their very best students from around the UK. Of those, the RBS picks one out of 10 (about). You don’t have to have anything “wrong with you” not to be chosen. They pick the outstanding ones who had a lucky day. Even the outstanding ones who have a off day are out.

Yeah, cool, let’s play the game “guess how long it’ll take for my boss to notice I’m getting no work done!”

It doesn’t seems so - SO FAR. If yes, it’s for people not in this group.

Realistically: nothing before early afternoon, right? Do results ever come out in the AM?

Hang in there, Emma. There are many of us here from the Eastleigh groups, all with about the same chance (not much, statistically). One way or another this will be over soon now.

It was only one and a half today... Newcastle and half of Birmingham. I’m guessing the other half of Birmingham tomorrow. Also, last year there were sometimes breaks with no results sent out. At least we’re in this madness together.

Hang in there. I so feel your pain. Keep us posted! 😘
