Welcome to our santuary and haven ladies.

Many thanks for Frasersmummy for passing the baton onto Cole and I. I am touched and hope I can do all our lo's justice.

The washing is a good idea as well , I can imagine with 3 little ones she will have an awful lot of it . I think maybe someone washing your smalls is a job for a closer friend than me

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh Hazy 'POWER TO THE PEOPLE!!!'

Every council should have a bereaved parent to advise them. So very very chuffed for Jayden and all his loving family

That is just fantastic - truly fantastic xx

travellingwilbury · 21/01/2009 11:58

Well done and even better to get an actual real life apology from a council

Morning folks.

Sorry i've not been around much - having a rough few days with a very angry little boy and a baby that won't sleep.

Hope everyone's ok.

shabster · 22/01/2009 07:33

Hiya Dee - that sounds like very hard work. Wish I could help you - any ideas how I can? xx

Deemented · 22/01/2009 07:39

You're doing the most important thing Shabs - just being there to listen to me whingeing. Thank you.

shabster · 22/01/2009 07:43

My ears are open at all times Dee xx

lottiejenkins · 22/01/2009 08:22

Morning everybody xx Poor old Wilf has been not well again. Was asleep in bed at school last night at 8pm! I rang ten minutes ago and they said he was feeling a little better. He seems to be feeling ill all the time at the moment........

shabster · 22/01/2009 08:51

Tom has been the same Lottie - crying with pain in his feet and shins......Dan was the same at this age so I keep telling him it is 'growing pains.'

He still has a horrible cough from Xmas time when he had a chest infection and the Winter sickness bug.

Im sure they will both improve when the weather starts improving and we actually see some sunshine.
