    DD2 was 3 when I lost her in Littlewoods. I let go her hand to pay, was talking to the lady then put my hand back down and she was gone! Five minutes later with all the staff looking for her little b00ger jumps out of a clothes rail and shouts boo! I screamed at her then sobbed and hugged her.

    i lost Lewis once in the centre, i had that sick feeling and was shaking. Honestly one second he was there and the next he had gone, i was trying to find someone to put an announcement over when i saw a Policeman holding his hand! he had walked over telling him he had lost his mum, his name age and even his address. The policeman thought he was brilliant, luckily it has never happend again.

    Ohhh... will have to check that out, thankyou :D OH and I both got some vouchers for Tesco this morning - £8 off when you spend £80 type, about six of them for the next few months. Was thinking we wouldn't get much use out of them but wipe stocks are running low (only 7 packs left! :eek:

    Just looking on Sainsburys website and they have 2 x 6 packs of Pampers wipes for £8 or £7.49 each? that cant be right can it? might have to go and investigate?

    I was lost for hours as a kid at a local temporary fairground. I'd got permission to go look at something or other and told my grandmother I'd meet her back at a particular stand. I got back there and she was gone. She'd gone somewhere looking for me, but then I went looking for her and when she went back to wait for me I didn't go back because I'd seen she wasn't there IYSWIM.

    Eventually a policeman found me. Scary business though.

    my brother used to 'disappear'. you'd watch him like a hawk, blink and he'd be gone. he'd never come when you called him either. used to always do it especially at the beach.

    How would you even keep a 3 yo quiet as you shaved their hair in a busy changing room!

    Reins are great! Awesome actually, it means they can walk ahead or beside you and you know they can't run off. Really good when in the busy town or whatever. PLUS if they fall over 9/10 they don't even hit the ground because you can hold their weight so they don't actually hurt themselves. Looks like they are a puppet but better than a grazed knee :D

    I do reccomend getting leather ones though, I don't trust the look of those cheap plasticky ones. I'd be worried the reins would pop out as they are held in by a clip!

    I have winnie the pooh leather ones somewhere around here if someone would like them? I'll post a pic!
