Wha was that place that told a breastfeeding women to stop recently?

[monkeytrousers]

There was a thread on it, does anyone remember. A national trust place or palace..

Was it Hampton Court?

Most recently it was Downing Street! Anyone see that?

Yes I saw the woman on This Morning last week who delivered a petition to no.10 re bfeeding. She spontaneously decided to feed her baby whilst she was on Tony's doorstep and the policeman tried to shield her from the mass of photographers!! Quite funny really but she did put her point across very eloquently in support of public breastfeeding I thought.

She was great, but at some of the bigoted responses people sent in- esp. the chap who only wanted to see the breasts of page 3 models. WTF?

We evolved to BF, not to stare at airbrushed images in tat papers fgs.

MT - wasn't in the National Portrait Gallery about 2 years ago?

I went to Hampton Court yesterday and had no problem BF in both cafes there.

It was Hampton Court - we had a thread on it a few months back, remeber?

What's this about Downing Street TLB?

mt, not ignoring your question but just seen it and am cream crackered so will fill you in tomorrow!

I recently said that a friend of mine had been asked to move to the (grotty and undesirable) baby changing room / public toilet in \link{http://www.waddesdon.org.uk\Waddesdon Manor}, which is a National Trust property.

She was in the lobby and was asked to move by the manager who said that they don't allow food and drink on the premises...

We went to a few NT properties recently. In one my 6 y.o. was told - also in the lobby - that no food or drinks allowed (it was only raising, but we went out). In another (Churchill's Chartwell House) I took DD outside to BF her. There was nowhere in the house that I felt would be Ok to do it, my own choice though. They had hip-seats for babies, so i thought quite accommodating.

PMSL at no food or drink on the property. What kind of donkey excuse is that???

I'm very glad I'm in Scotland and noone can give me a hard time for feeding in public.

I might tour National Trust properties this summer, breastfeeding at will

SIL was bf recently in a cafe - one of the big chain ones - and someone complained. the manager asked the complainer to leave, saying they had a policy of encouraging breastfeeding.

Oh hunker please do! You'll be on the news

fennel that's great, can you say where it is so I know I can go there?!
