Morning everyone
Just received a copy of DS1's Disney commercials he did, is really funny seeing him on tv and having words to say too! lol

DS1 has a tv casting on Wednesday, anyone else got anything coming up? We have officially had a whole week off from a casting now and I have really enjoyed it!!

Do they still enjoy it?
My DS1 is asking for an Ipod this xmas to take on train journey's with him as I only allow him to take his book's, won't let him take his ds, but I don't mind him listening to music. He know's santa doesn't exist too He kept questioning it last year and we just kept saying 'you have to believe or you won't get', but unfortunately his smartness we cannot ignore this year !!

Hi Mummyshoneys, my DS is 10. How old is your DC? Yes, I know it was great to be shortlisted but somehow the disappointment is even worse when it comes to nothing!

christabel · 05/11/2008 14:48

julie4travel - not sure if I have seen latest Aldi add - cleared my nearest Aldi out of leaflets for that week anyway!!!
Still not heard when UAN website to launch - hopefully next week.

I've read on here ( I think! ) that MOT are not taking children on right now.Is this true? Or is it still worth sending in some pictures? Also are they a good agency- is it worth waiting for their 'books' to re open???
thanks

Totallyfloaty35 · 05/11/2008 17:56

my eldest 2 are with MOT,they have told me that they are very quiet for work and a few people who have been with them for years say its really dead now.Im sure they are getting some work but they are not what they used to be(so i have been told)

Totallyfloaty35 · 05/11/2008 17:58

Marymay,the new Disney Girl mag comes out on Thurs or Fri,DD was told to make sure she checked it,your dd may be in it to,i hope its not a sealed one again

marymay · 05/11/2008 18:22

Thanks for that totally.I cant go back to whs again after last time
I will have to hunt it down somewhere else.
I can see we will be doing this for months.
The lady did say at the job all the girls would be used ,I just hope so

yummymummyno1 · 05/11/2008 18:26

Karamel - one of the girls at my DS school with MOT and seems to get quite a lot of work. A couple of Sundays ago a saw a full page M&S shot of her in one of the mags and in the same paper was a toys r us flyer and she was on that too - soo jealous!! Mind you they never even replied to me when I sent pics of my DC a couple of months back.

marymay · 05/11/2008 18:26

Sorry MelodyDaisy .i didnt answer you .Yes dd loves it and would do any job if you asked her.
ds is in it more for the money .
But also enjoys it.

Karamel · 05/11/2008 18:53

Totallyfloaty and Yummymmmyno1

Thanks for filling me in. I suppose it depends on the child- and not the agency as a whole....

christabel · 05/11/2008 20:35

Julie4travel - Yes a few pictues of Phil Vickery in Aldi Mag

Morning all-

brother stole laptop yesterday so haven't been able to catch up, which is very annoying. But I have the exciting news that babypearls has a 'consultation' with UA!! Just hope she's over the clingy thing by then.....

Curious to now how many of you are London based[nosey icon]

mummyshoneys · 06/11/2008 12:11

Well done on the consultation - and good luck with the clinging!! I have 3 clingers and they aren't even babies!

Well done O&P and good luck. We are also based in Herts but it probably takes us less time to get into central London then when we lived in London!

goingfor3 · 06/11/2008 12:18

Thats P&P not O&P!!!!
