Hi Ruth - I just wanted to say that that Doctor was horrid making you feel like that. About this time last year we bought bunk beds and put Big C on the top bunk - naively thinking the guard rails were high enough and her mature enough, but lo and behold she stage dived off the top bunk and broke her arm.

Buggie actually, and all at Kings looked after us marvellously - but it was also followed up by a visit from a health worker who made me feel the way you did/do - like we'd done this on purpose. That the house was an accident waiting to happen etc etc. It made me feel so so bad.

Someone shortly afterwards told me that they have to make you feel that way so that they can judge that actually you are a good mother and not someone uncaring or irresponsible. I guess a lot of the people they meet fall into that other category and they have to be really sure that the child is and will be ok.

Don't feel bad - accidents are exactly what they say. Baby Seb is a lovely bonny boy and he'll more than likely know nothing about this as he grows up with you xx

- Bitey Fox.
  
  By Babbit · Posted 2 hours ago
  
  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!

  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.
