Blue Boy and I are sitting here waiting for a couple to visit with their 6mth old twin girls, wanting January start. The house is clean, Info booklet at the ready etc. etc. I have lost count how many times we have done this in the past, but I still feel nervous until they arrive :panic: They are due at 8, so just another 15mins to go :clapping:

I have been minding 16 years and still get nervous. I even forgot one parent and child were coming once - no chance for the nerves to set in that time! All went ok and I got the child :thumbsup:

Yes, I forgot one not long ago, I had asked them to come during the day and then got engrossed in an activity and completely forgot :panic: These ones I think will have loads of questions, so thought it maybe easier without children here and then they can re-visit during the day if they like what they hear tonight :D

Oh no! Hope they have a good reason!
I find it's worse if I want the work - if I'm not bothered one way or the other then they usually want me :o
Good luck if they come (and good luck to them when you catch up with them if they don't! :laughing: )

I agree the first initial visit is not my fav. My other pet hate is time wasters. Hope they show

Well finally they arrived at 8.25 and they have only just gone.
The twins were adorable! They seemed keen, but who knows :rolleyes: I suppose we start the next waiting game again now :D

I'm glad they showed up.
Hope they don't keep you waiting too long before they decide.
