mysonsmummy · 01/06/2006 16:24

they just rang and said hes gorgeous and we defintely want to work with him. fantastic!!!! god its so nice to be spoken to like an adult. i spoke more to the booker there in last ten minutes than i have with my other agency in 2 years!! were off to butlins in the morning so really excited now! any ideas what happens about letting our other agency know etc?

izzyrubi · 01/06/2006 17:24

mysonsmummy >> so happy for you, I'm sure he'll do really well! Smile as for the other agency just send them an e-mail saying he'll be represented by a sole rep agency!! Hope you enjoy your holidays!

dd still in hospital they want to let her go but the silly bugger is refusing to keep oral antibiotics down so they're trying to figure something out but I have hopes that this will be over soon, she's even walking again Smile.

mysonsmummy · 01/06/2006 17:36

izzy- did you have to give them a months notice

Ragamuffin · 01/06/2006 17:41

mysonsmummy.........Well done on getting ds into UA!!!!!! Know you won't look back now! I would actually put a letter in the post as well as the e-mail.......more professional from your side, even if they haven't shown you the same level of professionalism.

izzy.......glad to hear dd is getting better and hope that she'll be permanently home soon. Lots of little ones have a real problem getting the meds sown at her age. Have to say though that
most anitbiotics taste foul so it's little wonder.

2pimms....still trying to get hubbie to download that ident off the sky+ box. He's been a little busy of late, but will keep nagging!

Lastly we are off to a very interesting casting with dd and ds tomorrow..........it's underwater!!! The brief says to bring bathing suits, goggles and towel. So should be a good day out if nothing else.

Ragamuffin · 01/06/2006 17:42

mysonsmummy..........you don't need to give any notice........just say with "immediate effect" in your letter.

sha11 · 01/06/2006 17:48

yack - Sadthe book shoots been postponed!!!
have not heard about Sainsburys yet [fingers crossed]

izzyrubi · 01/06/2006 20:13

have really good news Smile dd is coming home tonight! They changed the antibiotics and she had it just fine so she'll be home in a few minutes, yaaay! Smile fingers crossed she won't have trouble with the medication!!

sha11 >> when did they postpone it to?

ragamuffin >> that casting sounds great, what is it for?

mysonsmummy >> in my case it was a bit different because I didn't ask them to cancel the contract, they canceled it without me asking, so I didn't give any notice, really, but I don't think you need to give them notice anyway. Really pleased for you, I'm sure you'll like UA!

hemart >> try childmodelling.net, top agencies in my humble opinion are Urban Angels, Bruce & Brown, Kids London, MOT, Alphabet Kidz and Truly Scrumptious but there are loads of other agencies out there that are actually very very good, my advice, do your homework, apply to as many as you can and then choose whichever suits you best! good luck!

hemart · 01/06/2006 22:23

Thank you izzyrubi, I have sent her photos to Bruce & Brown and MOT, Urban Angels is not accepting applications, will post the applications to the other ones you mentioned!

perfumelady · 01/06/2006 22:24

has any one been to the worx studio in parsons green? am i better of getting off at clapham junction rather than waterloo?

izzy great news hope she's 100% better soon

misdee · 01/06/2006 22:24

has anyone heard from IK since that email?

perfumelady · 01/06/2006 22:28

mysonmummy i'm sure your be really happy with u/a we are, we have a job tomorrow with them. how old is your little one? i know someone else who has just been excepted and they have a job in the pipline for him already talk about quick.

izzyrubi · 01/06/2006 22:45

perfumelady >> I used to live in Parson's Green! Clapham Junction is really not far from there but it's not so easy with public transport. I think you would have to get a train from there to Putney and then bus number 14 or train to West Brompton and then District line... it's probably easier to get a cab though! What's the job for?

hemart >> No problem, let us know how you get on!

misdee >> Not a word... not sure if tigeryuan heard from them...

yackertyyack · 01/06/2006 22:51

IZZY ....... Glad to hear little one is home and on the mend - hope you sleep easier tonight knowing that shes back in her own bed!!! Smile

mysonsmummy · 01/06/2006 22:59

izzy - so glad lo is back home where she belongs. your comment made me laugh - did you ask some questions they wern't comfortable with. IMO they like parents like me who dont speak unless spoken too. lol UA said when someone leaves them they have to give 30 days notice so should do the same really. lets hope we have a busy summer holiday as sure ds school wont be happy about having time off. does any parents with kids at school know how it works? thanks

mysonsmummy · 01/06/2006 23:16

is there a problem with IK again?

perfumelady · 02/06/2006 00:19

mysonsmummy my dd is at school, we have had a couple of jobs in the holidays but a lot seem to come week days whist at school. each school seems to react differantly my dd's school are brilliant, and they share what she has done in assembly but i do know of some mums who have said there school have not allowed time off for modelling at all, i think you have to see what happens it's not like you get jobs every single week so it doesn't seem to bad and some companys do have castings after school hours which is fine if you live in london, the last casting we went to was between 3-6pm. i really wouldn't worry we haven't found that it has disrupted school at all and the good thing with u/a you can turn a job down and they don't hold it agaist you we have turned down 3 or 4 jobs, sometimes you just can't do them.

izzy jobs for super nanny magazine

thorntons · 02/06/2006 00:25

Evening all! Izzy so glad to hear dd is home ! Brave little trooper.Hope she is back to 100 % very soon!
Perfume lady .Have you had a look at Worx website ? www.theworx.co.uk/ Look under location there is transport info. We drove to a Monsoon shoot there last year so sorry not much help re public transport. Nice studios,friendly helpful staff maybe you could call them for further directions. Good luck for shoot/casting.

thorntons · 02/06/2006 00:27
