Photo book maker and organiser needed!

Hi - I'm desperate for someone to help me organise a mound of electronic photos and videos. I need all of them backed-up, sorted and cleaned up - plus several photo books put together and printed.

Re: Chelsea & Westminster - Private midwife led care?

I had both of my 2 kids at the Kensington wing. I used Dr. Keith Duncan who is an excellent Obstetrician. I had 2 difficult births and the midwives there were great and I particularly remember one called "Renee" who was a saint! If she is still there, look her up and see if she does wid-wi...

Bean bags - Can anyone make them?!

Hi - I am looking for someone to make a couple of bean bags for our kids play area. I have some lovely Marimekko fabric, and I saw that they make these perfect round bean bags, but they only sell them in Finland!

Re: Family photographer recommendation please

Hi can highly recommend my good friend Francois Roquemont. He's actually a fashion photographer, but he'll do family shots sometimes. His prices are much better than a large family photography studio. He does great candid photos in your home or in the park, and he doesn't do anything too staged, so ...

Recipes for freezing family meals

Re: Nightmare with 3 year old's eating

I totally empathize with you. I think people that have not dealt with a difficult eater really have no clue just how hard it is for a mum and how we try every method under the moon. My kids are polar opposites and I didn't do anything different... one was just born a difficult eater. By nature my pi...

Re: Should sibling's rights be reduced for renters that move awa

I found this chain of posts really discouraging. There seems to be a lot of debating going on and not much of a pro-active approach to change things. Instead of spending time nitpicking at each other, how about everyone post how to campaign to get a new primary school in the area, or post who to tal...
