    Sami, Belfast is Royal Mails main "lost post" sorting centre place. All undeliverable mail in the UK goes there ;).

    SS, I'm looking for a similar recommendation for a summer sling, so lemme know what you hear! I think Fritha said a breathable jersey wrap sling tied to have the least number of layers...but I'm scared of wraps! ;)

    Sami, I mean a lighter fabric. The one I have is linen and it was keeping me and Molly *very* warm in -several degree weather, I don't want her sweltering all summer! I'm looking at embroidered sari fabric on ebay and wondering if that would work...

    is it quite a heavy linen then? mine is lineny (coz that is so a word) but the same lightness as you would wear in summer.
    A mei tai could be better for you because there is less layering and wrapping going on.
    Have you looked at http://www.thebabywearer.com/ or natural mamas forum for more experienced opinions? x

    Excellent Sami, thanks! The babywearer site has a picture of a lady using a length of sari fabric to hold a bigger baby than my monster.

    *goes back to ebay*

    ah how random. I take it you didn't do the sensible thing and put senders details on it then :p I put my details on a label with a pic of a bumble bee that says bee happy :D

    :j lovely sensible doctor! :T

    :rotfl:

    Actually I did :p It goes back to Belfast before it comes back to me! Strange I know!

    Nearly had 3 jobs for this afternoon but because they were desperate I asked for more money, they are going to ring me back tomorrow if they can't get anyone else to do it. I could do the jobs but its over a 30mile round trip so I want it to be worth my while ;)

    I need to do some glossing!!!

    Sami - thanks for link to side wrap for Mei Tai - might try it.

    PP - I see you got my email. I have no idea why it's not working :(

    Me neither Glam! It's bugging me so I'm stepping away!

    Just read on a childminding forum that my CM has mentioned she cancelled the contract last week. TBH I didn't realise she was actually cancelling, thought we were just postponing until Caitlyn got a bit better at being away from me :( Oh well, saves me paying her a retainer of £30 per week that I can't afford.
