  1. Myself, my husband and our two children need somewhere to stay on Friday night as we are coming back to ED to meet some friends who have also recently moved away. We found a reasonable accommodation on Sat night but everything on Fri is booked or too expensive. Is anyone in need of house sitting/ pet sitting for the night?

    Thank you 

  2. Hello

    we have mice in our flat and we are aware that they are in the communal areas and by the bins. So even if we call pest control, they will find their way back in. One of the flats in the block had some gaps filled in behind the cupboards and I am looking for someone to help me do that.

    Thank you

  3. Hello everyone

    we have a soon to be 9 year old boy and a 6 year old girl (and a dad who is probably more keen!)

    We have been thinking of getting a console... is it madness?Is it too soon?

    At the moment they only watch about 30 mins of tv or Ipad games a day max. And I will still carry on with this rule.

    If you have experience of any of these, which would you recommend?

    I know absolutely nothing. I know my son is into Minecraft and football. My daughter does colouring and music games.

    Thank you

  4. We are going on 7th October for a week. We are arriving in Zadar and staying for two nights - What shall we do in Zadar? We then spend two nights at the Lakes National park - Any good itineraries? And after that we have another 3 nights - what would you suggest? Paklenica? Beach?! Thank you

    We have two children 8 and 5 who are quite into walking and beach, not so good in museums and restaurants...

  5. We were refused a god by all the rescue places we contacted because we have two small children and 3 cats.

    So we had to buy.

    We did a lot of research on breeds before choosing and then read lots of books about training and life with dogs.

    We ended up with absolutely the right dog for us but I still was not prepared for how much it will change your life - going out for the day?! You can't leave a dog at home alone all Saturday. Going away for the week end?! You need to choose a place that will accept dogs and then limit your activities to places that accept dogs (no museums, cinemas, cathedrals, play parks, etc, few restaurants/ cafes... even natural attractions or National Trust properties or places like that often don't want dogs...)

    Also, do you work from home? If you are home now, but will go back later and work away from home what is the dog going to do all day? Will you manage to walk the dog before and after work considering you have the kids?

    Mine are almost 4 and almost 8 and still need a lot of persuading to take the dog out.

    Anyway, I am not trying to put you off, just from my own personal experience I would say do your homework carefully and for a couple of months, keep a diary of how you spend your days and week ends and see if you could fit in the dog in your lifestyle.

    Best of luck!
