  1. New mattress, with anti allergy cover Laminate flooring is best anti mite Hot wash all bedding regularly
  2. Yeah, I was going to suggest just embracing it Lie down together and cuddle The fighting night time thing isn't so much fighting the end of playing, or fighting skeep, it's fighting letting go of you ... Listen to the archers with headphones on your phone and snuggle in the dark? Try bit to fret about stuff you should be doing Just allocate 15-20 minutes to lying quietly .. No talking
  3. There is an anthropological explanation for the fussiness - once children start to walk they are at risk of poisoning if they eat food not dejected by an adult, hence their programming to divide things into 'food/non-food' categories If you flag slightly in the varied menu at around that point (for instance going on holiday or child is ill) then suddenly they won't touch something they ate before It doesn't last forever though My oldest was really really fussy but from about aged 7 he began to chill The others are all pretty good I think the most relaxed approach is to have a summer of meze sort of meals, eat together Serve a few familiar things and a new thing and a dip and some carbs and let them see you enjoying it all That way you can enjoy the meal without confrontation but not feel you are feeding a restricted diet I use serving dishes too That way they can help themselves or i pop a spoon of something on their plate but less waste and less scrutiny of what passes their lips See if you can eat tea with friends? Have dinner at the bread of life cafe? Someone else has cooked it then :-)
  4. Latin American festival Sunday at the horniman
  5. Has she been offered medication? I believe that plus an alarm is very effective Hope you can sort it I had a similar problem myself and was very self conscious

  7. Christine Neillands
  8. Upstairs at the library
  9. We have had problems ... Yesterday they had a recorded message stating there were problems in our area!
  10. I am not sure returning to the topic is a good idea But how about watching some gymnasts on you tube and emphasising the strength involved? Replace the heavy adjective with 'strong' 'powerful' Even show her how some aspects of gymnastics feature small gymnasts while other equipment is best mastered by tall or strong ones?
  11. I have a brother and a sister and have always had a smoother relationship with mt brother, we are quite similar. I fought terribly with my sister though we got over that once we grew up.

  16. I agree with you on all counts That second article talks about the basis of the latest pronouncement (l5s converted to a/a* as opposed to b and the difference between the l5s in a selective school (all high l5s) and in a comprehensive ( all l5s)

  20. It's down to the minder what their deal is but if you only want Mondays it would be fairer for you to negotiate all bank holidays /5 rather than pay for all the Mondays! There are 8 bh a year I think and 4 of them are fixed as Mondays Suggest you pay 1/5 of the year's quota and 1/5 of whatever she charges as annual leave. 2-3 weeks?
