Well, driving past the local high school today reminded me it's GSCE results day, and also reminded me that I haven't got any myself*
So how did all our 16 year-old members get on today? Catastrophic failure or monumental success, let us all know the horrible truth...
(* cos I did O-levels, not cos I'm thick)

I got 7 GCSE's back in the day. The night out in the Paradox in Aintree was immense!!!
In fact, I was in Liverpool city centre last Thursday night with the lads and the A-Level students were out. Fuck me, I'm only 25 and I felt ancient. I just didn't fit in. Totally shattered the illusion in my mind that I was young and hip. Me and the lads were commenting that when we were 16-18, we thought that we would all still be cool when were 25. Are we fuck. And we all realised it last Thursday.

From echo.
THOUSANDS of students receiving their GCSE results this morning were handed a stark warning last night - celebrating could cost you a £50 hangover.
Merseyside and Cheshire Police will be out in force tonight to catch underage pupils, with first time offenders facing fixed penalty fines for the first time.
Both GCSE and A-level results nights are traditionally busy for the pubs and clubs of the region but officials are now emphasising the message that many of the revellers are breaking the law.
The GCSE results, in particular, trigger an increase in alcohol problems involving 16-year-olds, who are either celebrating or drowning their sorrows.
New powers not only mean hitting young people with the fines but more severe penalties for retailers and licensees who serve under-18s.
They can face losing their licences or fines of up to £1,000.
Twenty-two trading standards teams are joining police officers around the region to clamp down on underage drinking.
New research has revealed that seven out of eight teenagers in the region break the law on buying and drinking alcohol.
Tony Allen, head of the North West trading standards underage sales team, said: "The law doesn't care whether your results mean you have something to celebrate or you are seeking consolation - if you are under 18 and are caught trying to buy alcohol or are found to be drunk you run the risk of being fined £50.
"And no matter how your day started, a bad way for it to end is with a £50 hangover.
"Retailers and licensees know they must not sell alcohol to under-18s and we will be conducting checks across the region to ensure they comply with the law - we will pursue prosecutions against the rogue minority that flout the rules." Matt Henessey, drug and alcohol strategy manager at Government Office for the North West, said there could be no exceptions for GCSE day.
He said: "We aren't going to pretend that today is anything other than one of the most stressful and important days in the lives of thousands of young people in the North West.
"But if you are under the legal age then buying alcohol and getting drunk should not play a part in your plans."
The latest survey of nearly 13,000 teenagers across the North West showed that 40% of underage drinkers buy their own alcohol.
Around 53% of 14 to 17-year-olds say they drink alcohol at least once a week, compared with just 12% who never drink.
The most popular place for young people to drink is on the streets with 45% saying they spend up to £10 on alcohol each week, and 16% saying they spend more than £11.
