    weezl i dont have a problem lol!!!!

    I have officially had enough! Charlie is driving me up the wall! i was woken to find he has drawn on all my walls and carpets and megans bed with lipstick. i have spent the past 2 hours cleaning it up (oh and his whole body?) am sat here thinking is this what he is going to be like forever? all he does is ruin everything we have and have worked so hard to get, nothing stops him and i feel like a terrible mother giving up on him. i just dont know if i can get up every moring to see what he has destroyed? stair gates,safety locks etc dont keep him out as he works things out very quickly, obviously i cant put a lock on his door but i just dont see any way of securing things from him? sorry for the rant first thing just feel like im going to explode!

    Caz, what about safety locks with tape wrapped around them so he can't unfasten them?

    Tia, caz, CSH all scottish contingent... I'm just about to upload a biscuit recipe for my vegan meal planner that's very like a shortbread but contains cornmeal.

    Would it be ok to call it a shortbread or would there be a scottish outcry about the cornmeal?!


    Folk always find something to moan about but according to this as long as you have a basic SB recipe you can stick anything in there!

    I personally won't be offended :cool:

    Ooo, hes getting big eh?!?

    Forgive me, I'm totally ignorant about slings but from that photo it looks like there is nothing round his back to stop him throwing himself backwards. Is that right?

    Caz....what about one of those doors that are like stable doors, they open half and half...my cousin used to use one on her kids bedrooms instead of gates. I think they are called Dutch doors or something similar.
