Hi girls.
Please could you all do something really lovely for Jimjams DS? Well of course you will.
Will you please go and take a picture of your washing machine, you can then eithr scan it in and email it to me as a j-peg or have it develoiped, asap, and post it to me. (Contact me for my address through mumsnet).

Thank you all so much.
I know you won't let me down and I look forward to receiving pics of your washing machines very soon.

JimJmas - are there any other white goods that he'd like while we're at it?

Done! I really enjoyed taking the pictures, actually, and our ds1 was fascinated by the idea too - remembering your ds1, Jimjams, he wants to know how the sensory room in pregressing? I know how much else you've had to do, though, and was trying to explain to ds1 about the challenges of new babies... Set me wondering if you could somehow turn your lowest level into a safe and confinable area? Our ds1 also described your PECS cards to dh in loving detail, down to the little bits of velcro on the back!

Dh has just tried to take a picture but our camera is ancient and the kitchen is too dark without a flash. Sorry. I'll keep an eye out for other pictures instead.

TC, are you going to email these to Jimjams? I'll send mine direct. I will have to go down in the black hole where the washing machine lives with my camera (cellar). I was going to suggest to everyone who has a kid with "funny" tastes(!) or who really likes looking at photos, to make a slide show on your photo software or use PowerPoint.

I can't do anything, or check anyones emails until monday at work. What I do receive I'll print off when I get a chance during the week and post off to JimJams. anyone who wants to print their own off and post direct to me, or straight to JimJams, that's great too.

Oh sorry TC, didn't realise it was a work email, apologies for hounding you, I'm not good with patience


Have sent them this AM direct to Jimjams, you're printer will probably pack it's bag and leave with all the work it's got to do otherwise.

Well done for organising this, you're a star

What a shame I didn't see this earlier as I could have snapped a smiling dh lying on our kitchen floor descaling our machine's pump at 9.30pm on Sunday night...
Will snap with boring old analogue camera tonight and hopefully get to Thomcat by end of week.

What a fab idea TC!!

I will try and remember to take some pics today - shall I email them to you TC or Jimjams direct? Or I could send prints to JJ direct?

TC- I sent you a reply - my email packed up for a bit though..... yes thank you I have loads and I have turned them into a book for ds1- with symbols. He's very pleased with it.

I've been meaning to email soapbox as well to say THANK YOU for the magazines

A BIG THANK YOU to everyone (is it ok to shout that?? )

You all have much nicer kitchens than me!

Jimjams - you've just reminded me - I have some more to bring in and post on

Still haven't made a massive impact on the clutter yet though! However I have a few bags of clothes and toys all heading to the charity shop this weekend so maybe that'll help
