Being an auntie is one of the best things ever :)) I don't want children at all, but my nieces and nephews are just the best. Make the most of this time. They are so sweet and learn so much and change on a very quick basis. I love them when they are toddlers too, tasting different foods, learning to walk, talk etc (tu) Enjoy and congrats!

its amazing I am an aunt to a fabulous 18 month year old and a blissfully sleepy 2 week old. I love em to bits and when I first held my niece i felt very very emotional and I a tough old boot. I cant wait for niece to rebel against her mother when she is 15 and come to stay with me so I can teach her the ways of jazz and fabulous shoes!


Congratulations you will love it!

I love it - you wait till they start calling you "AuntyX" in that sweet little voice...there's nothing like it...and as for the hugs and cuddles...bliss...


One of my little nephews is with me right now and he is saying: "it's good having an Aunty because she spoils you...and she can cook!". Just thought I throw that in!

I look at every person male or female as my brother and sister. All of mankind is part of our family. Some good, some bad. But none of us are perfect. We are all children of some kind of science theory thingy or a higher being creation. Either way, I feel the love and love should be shared with everyone. Of course, we all have bad days and forget this important fact.


Nevermind Auntie, can I have a hug please.

Congratulations fairyuk24!


Being an aunty is lovely, lots of cuddles and love and you get to give the child back...


Could I just beg you please, if you promise to take your nephew to Legoland, will you be sure to do it, please? He will remember that you promised and look forward to it for months, if you don't do it, he will probably be crushed and no-one else will do. If you promise to get him a particular LEGO figure or Transformer that he is lusting after, will you actually get it? If you organise to spend bank holiday Monday taking him to Hamleys or making rice crispy cakes with him - will you please remember and not text after lunch on the day to say you have a hangover?


My daughter has an aunty - her godmother. She phones and gets my daughter to pick her birthday gift online with her and then she forgets to order it. She forgets to come to birthday parties at all. She makes grand promises and leaves my daughter in tears.


All that kids need is your time. It is that simple. Read him a book, listen to him, get down and play on the floor with him. He will always remember you. My aunty - my godmother was brill.

      Bitey Fox.

      By Babbit · Posted

      I’m not sure how many other people have experienced this; but both me and one of my friends have the same story. Around Crawthew Grove and Crystal Palace Road: I was followed by a large fox right on my heel. At first I didn’t notice because I had my headphones on, but then I noticed my shadow had an extra lump in it, funnily enough, it was a fox, very very close to my feet. Even if I sped up walking it just tried to get closer - it was quite frightening actually, it was quite clear that it wanted to nip me. I didn’t know what to do so, I started to reprimand the fox and walked slowly away from it, facing it - which it didn’t seem to like and backed off a bit. I then proceeded to speed-walk away.   Quite frankly, the whole situation was quite embarrassing and a little bit frightful as I’d never had a fox even come up to me. I’ve heard of particularly curious foxes that might come up to someone who beckons them, and maybe even bite that person, but I’ve never heard of a fox chasing someone. The amount of confidence that it had was incredible.    When it happened, I was on the way to see some friends, and once I had told one of them, she told me the same thing happened to her.  if anyone else knows anything about this bitey fox then let me know!

      Recommendation: Spoiltdog aka Andy

      By Enable · Posted

      Another recommendation for Andy. I needed an old kitchen removed as an emergency. Andy came over quickly and did a fantastic job. I have used Andy a few times. He is punctual, helpful and always does an  excellent job.
