I only ask as I believed it was 3 years... and so far I'm 3 years and 1 month.
I've spent the last 3 months thinking the call will come any day... but nothing as yet!

I had mine Dec 05 then again Nov 08 so just under the 3 years

Think it depends on how busy each area is, minders around here are getting earlier as so many cm's packed in, so not as many to get through IYSWIM, couple I know were 5 and 6 mths early

Mine will be 4 years in December!

Ofsted were meant to come and inspect me in June but NEVER turned up and after waiting in every day until 10am for three weeks I gave up too.

They did turn up in the summer hols but as I only work term time (and was in Italy at the time) Mrs Ofsted didn't have much luck!

Oh good... I'll stop thinking every time the phone rings it may be them!
Although part of me wants it over and done with!

I had mine today and they were 8 months late. 3 years were up in Januaury 09.

I had a phone call saying they're coming in September - 5 years from the last one!!! My paperwork's still not up to scratch!

The rules for inspecting against the regs changed yesterday as well. So more evidence needed and lots of questions to answer, and they are shit hot on paperwork. Sorry!!
