Mum and dad should quit their jobs and live off air and fairies, so that they can spend quality time with their offsprings. Or maybe they shouldn't have had a child in the first place. It's 2017, parents go to work and children need childcare. Thanks for the post OP, I wouldn definitely want to know!

Thanks both!

Can anyone recommend a good, and possibly local, career coach? Many thanks

Hello We are getting quotes from both of these firms and would be grateful for any up to date feedback (feel free to PM) to help us make a decision. Many thanks in advance

I have about 50ish photos (in a CD) that need a bit of photoshopping, things like cropping to adjust composition, white balance, exposure and whatever would make the photos look nice. Is there anyone that could provide this service? I am looking for an experience/skilled individual (i.e. not amateur like me). Please PM if interested, with a quote or an idea of price. Many thanks

I'm sorry to hear this and thanks for the heads up

Another recommendation here. Mike from Home Cert turned up within an hour from me calling on a Saturday afternoon, he assessed and explained what the problem was very clearly and did some extra work whilst he was there. I would highly recommend him.

I would just like to add that although it's true that with a nanny you don't need to rush home from work to pick up your sick child from nursery, nannies also get ill sometimes or need an emergency day/time off, hence the issue is still there.

we took the single buggy with the buggy board, as the double buggy wouldn't have fitted in the back of the car with the rest of the baggage! Good luck

Hello I have a (heavy) 2.9 year old and a 8 months old. We use a Phil&Teds which works quite well but are looking to move to a buggy board arrangement as the toddler is wanting to walk more and more. I have a MacLaren Quest but I can't imagine it working with a buggy board for long distances. Can anyone recommend a good lightweight buggy that works well with a buggy board? E.g.how is the Bugaboo Bee? Thanks very much!

I also recommend Ed - he cut our tree a couple of years ago.

Hello Has anyone got their front garden refurbished and can recommend the builder? We are looking for someone to create a drainage system, tile, put some paving, reshape and render a wall and some steps etc. Many thanks

Thank you, I will call them

Other than ADT - possibly without a contract. Thank you!
