Well, aren't these forums brilliant! I'd heard of Mumsnet before, but didn't realise the full range of subjects you chat about - thought it would be all nappies and weaning, and I'm well past those stages.
Not sure of the forum etiquette here, but hope it's ok to just do a little note to say hi and introduce myself; I expect it's here and the Bilingual boards I'll be hanging about in most frequently.
We're an English family who moved to French-speaking Switzerland just over two years ago. I have a boy of 10 and girl of 6; both are in the local schooling system, so it's been fascinating reading everyone else's experiences of non-English language schooling, bilingualism, etc.
Hubby's the working one; as is often the case we followed his job over here. I haven't worked at all for 10 years - far too busy moving areas every 2-3 years to shunt his career forward, although this is the first overseas move.
Looking forward to getting involved in some of the relevant discussions, finding out more about you all, and perhaps even meeting up with the odd Swiss dweller.
Thanks a lot.
