Right can we try to make this the longest thread in the whole of MN? Because as a parent I have found it a source of help, strength and definitely laughter, in a "spit coffee over the monitor" sort of way!
I've been on web forums for donkeys year - I sent my first email in 1988 - and I have to say this is one of the nicest and also most fun forums I've ever seen. Not to mention morally supportive.
The girls who run this site really deserve a vote of thanks.
So here is my start: Thanks!
(Oh and I'd also like to thank Cbeebies for the free babysitting!)
