I'm very excited too, is that sad or what?

I know the people who Sandra bought her house from and when the CSDO told me there was a childminder a few doors up from me I wanted to meet her and then we meet on here!!! As you say, it's a small world. And thank you for the nice things you said Angel. I've been looking out of my window at girls going past with children and thinking, I wonder if that's Sandra. Can't really run out and ask everyone who passes though can I, they'd think I was mad!

We're going to have a coffee soon aren't we Sandra.

Fantastic.....you can tell us what Sandra is really like! You do know she spends far too much time on her computer....just look at her post count!

[sue m]

You should arrange to meet up Monkey. She could be your back up childminder? You probably have one though. I had to ask my next door neighbour if she'd be my responsible adult (she's not a childminder but has two young children) and she said ok but then I realized she's never in so that was no good! When I lived in London my friend 5 doors down was a childminder too and we are both from Yorkshire so that was another weird thing, we were each others back up.

Thank you Flutterbyes. I'll never be off this computer now. I did notice how many posts Sandra has made, can't believe she can talk more than me!!!!!

I lived in Hertfordshire actually Monkey, just outside North London on the Essex/Middlesex border really. I say London cos it's easier! Steve worked in London and sang in the clubs there and some around where we lived. You from London???

No, but Mr Hunky Monkey is. I moved down there when i was 18 and worked as a nanny in Finchley, Putney, Kensington, Clapham and Twickenham. We lived in Northolt too for a few years. Still got a couple of childminder mates down there even though i have been 'home' for 9 years!
