3 (and SS too!) I'm very cross on your behalf. What a shame for the kids too Another name to add to your list might be watchdog - particularly if you continue to have trouble getting money back from them. If they are charging big ££££££ for holidays specifically for autistic kids, then aren't geared up to actually cope with autisitic kids then they may well be interested?

Thank you - I hadn't thought of that.
I've emailed Watchdog now too.

Still not heard back from them - i've emailed them again.

And the local radio still haven't had a comment from them.

I would agree with this. He played football recently with my colleague's son's football team. Her son is the manager and may have some sory of contact details, I'm not sure how it was all arranged. If you are interested let me know and I can try and find out. They said he was a lovely man

I've emailed him through his agent cc'd to corrie so hopefully he'll get to see it - if not i'll be in touch.
I've seen him a few times on tv talking about autism and he always comes across well.


Thank you all so much for your help today ladies.

I'm off to spend the evening with my lovely OH who listened to me rant for an hour this morning from 3-4 when he had to get up for work at 5!

Susan, somany folk use stockpics or stolen pics that you never really know.

I hadn't thought of that. Doesn't explain asking the length of a dress which is already in the description though. :mad:

I think the Think Tank would be a good place to meet up, it has a couple of cafe areas and there's a big play area for the mobile / older children... You can pay with clubcard points and there's also some 30% discount vouchers if you travel in by train... (Although I don't know if you can use both... Black Country museum let me use both but Cadbury world wouldn't)

I'm absolutely flabbergasted at my big daughter today... She's got medicine for a water infection... It's not her usual one, it's very aniseedy and she doesn't like it... Only 2 doses per day, so this morning I give her a dose and put the bottle away half full, tonight I get the bottle out and there's 1 dose left... Took a while of asking and a tantrum over being sent to bed... But she finally admitted she poured it down the sink so she wouldn't have to take it... I've got to ring the Dr tomorrow and see if they'll do her another script... Which is a bit scary because it's similar to something Hubby's mother used to pull to overmedicate his younger brother...

And in other news... There's a familiar face on the less than 12 weeks pregnant board... http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showpost.html?p=35103211&postcount=4953

Oh my......

Molly will not stop howling, I have a raging headache and am sick of living in a pigsty. I cleaned today after getting home, because the process of packing did not make the place neat at all and Husband didn't do stuff like take out the recycling before we went. I'm going to do three small jobs and then think about going to bed, hopefully the small one will be asleep by then because I am completely worn out listening to the constant full on screaming because she doesn't want to be in the crib and thinks she should be allowed to sleep in the bed with us.
