    JM No you can get them higher than 2.5 altho I think they only go up to 3.0 tog

  • Mel - glad Uni went well.

    TBH Kai is always going to cry more for anyone else than he does for you...the childminder probably thought he had been really good (lots of babies cry a lot IYSWIM) and if your boys were bored they would have been taking more notice of Kai being grumpy than they normally would.

    I would send them for 3 or 4 hours one day later in the week and then turn up unannounced about an hour early.


    Mostly, try not to worry too much, Kai will sense it if you are stressed.

    2.5 tog is more like 5 tog because it is wrapped all around IYSWIM ;):D

    No silly! I ordered them, and the fairies must have sent the confirmation to your email by accident. If you just hand the actual tickets back to the fairies, they can bring them back to me! :D

    Nice to see you Mel (sort of!).
    Glad uni went well! As usual MFD is talking sense - send them again later in the week, and turn up to collect a little early!
    I'm sure they'll be fine - [STRIKE]he's[/STRIKE] they're bound to miss you, especially on their first time!

    I thought that, although while I say they were bored!! That is what they said, but they were in the garden the majority of the time playing football with the childminders eldest son (13) I just know that Kai doesn't really scream, he is too laid back and happy! I am sure it is just the settling-in period that will be fairly hard and all will be fine once they have been going a little while....

    I was thinking of handing Kai over for a couple of hours on Thursday actually possibly send him over at about 1pm, and getting her to collect the other two from school but only leaving them all there till about 4.30pm. I will definitely do this.
