I had some Chinese neighbours when we lived in Cumbria and their kitchen was a brick building completely separate from the main house. All their cooking was done out there and what had been the kitchen was the dining room. White goods were all out there too. I never asked how they coped with bad weather, but it worked for them. A cultural thing perhaps.
-
Battenberg is a cop out - easy peasy if you can make Victoria sponge. Croissants now, that’s a different level! I went foraging for blackberries and made yummy crumble slice, which didn’t last long!

This child will have male teachers in their life going forwards, how on earth can the parents hope to mitigate against that?
-
And maybe contact county early years for advice
-
Oh well huge thanks for looking. Hmm. anyone use Pacey? Might they have them?
-
Yes I agree with Sunnyday here. I think it might be advisable to contact your County Early Years team for advice on how to handle this. Is he aware that this has been requested? Many years ago my son worked at my preschool whilst waiting to start Uni, and the parents all said how lovely it was to have a bloke about the place.

Gotta love that man 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I think she’s going to be all year round

Apparently according to ‘O’ it isn’t sufficient. 🤷♀️

Sorry to post a ‘work related’ (shudder) request, but a friend of mine has changed her registration from childminder to childcare on domestic premises and has asked me “Do you have any access to a good parent contract / enrolment form that parents sign. I’m sick of buying them and I think under my new registration it’s slightly different.” please has anyone got anything that she could adapt? I’m not sure if my old one would still stand up to current regulations

We had Zebedee back in hospital on Friday and yesterday to top up his phosphate and blood supply. I wish we knew where it all kept going! He’s home again now, and still weary but nothing like last week, thankfully.
-
I’ve one with the squares edged in black that my Nan made, and another edged in white that Nana made, safely in the loft, but I think I might wash and air them through and have a good look at them. This one is for St Catherine’s hospice to do with as they wish, keep or raffle.
-
It’s a right old mixture of mini balls of DK cotton that’s just taking up space, so it’s filling my evenings and hospital visits with Zebedee. I can do one in half an hour so not too taxing. Nothing like the blanket I made for my daughter’s wedding with fine cotton that took well over an hour just to do a side at the largest point.
-
They are fabulous! Well done you! I’m currently making granny squares for a blanket. X
-
Well done you! How fabulous. I love singing! I can still hear my Dad lean down to whisper in church, whilst we were singing “Thine be the glory” - ‘if you aren’t feeling light-headed yet, you’re not doing it right’ and I bent to tell my daughter the same at his funeral.
-
Yes! Both on timing - another half an hour could make all the difference but maybe not such traumatic tv? and yes also about the finished products not being as crisp as recent years - and also things they pick out in their assessments are glossed over when they’re doing their recap!
-
Well I thought it was just me, I’m glad it’s not. I wonder if it’s the presenter chappie who seems to be making it a bit of a joke. Plus it doesn’t seem to have the depth of ability we’ve had in the past. Maybe just me and the way things are at the mo 🤷♀️

Oh I found myself watching a Christmas film the other day too! Seems very bizarre
-
Yes, absolutely! And also some lovely comments for parents to treasure forever
-
Gorgeous!! I hope she loves them!
