      Did you do yours when you were 13? At my daughters school they get confirmed at 8 before their 1st Holy Communion, which seemed a bit odd to me.
      I had Christopher - after my Gandad A boys name I know but....

      Yes when I was 13. At home it's communion at 7 and then confirmation at 12/13 which is the last year of primary school. confirmation before communion is a bit bizarrre!!

                I like to think of my rich tapestry as coming from the Bayeux region of France, with myself replacing Harold Godwinson. Except where he got an arrow in the eye, the b@stards have got me bent over with a sixteen foot bargepole heading my way
