Sometimes in life someone or something comes along and leaves a lasting impression in your life, which changes your life,
Thanks to you two this has happened to about 18,594 people (to date) and for that we will all be eternally grateful
big hugs to you both
Your Troublesom one xxxxxx
One life live it
Everybody has said everything I could wish to say so I will simply thank you both by a lovely quote from Mark Twain
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed
by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do.
So throw off the bowlines.
Sail away from the safe harbor.
Catch the trade winds in your sails.
Explore. Dream. Discover.
- Mark Twain
All the best Pauline and Graham in this new chapter in your life x
Thankyou can sometimes be such a simple word, but this thankyou comes from deep within my heart x x x
I'm not going to hold my breath where childcare.co.uk are concerned, so I shall just forget they are now in charge.
Oh Pauline and Graham what can I say - Thank you so so very very much for everything you have done for all of us in setting up and running this fantastic forum - I know for one that despite 25 years of experience in Childcare and Education and 7 years of Legal experience I wouldn't have ever hoped to have achieved my Outstanding Grade without all the kind help and support of all the positive and helpful members on here.
I too have made some very good friends through this forum and I thank you for that too.
In addition I can always say with pride that "I have met the Boss" - I know because I have a key ring which says so - LOL - I have to say it was a pleasure to have had the honour to meet two very unselfish and dedicated people.
I am sure that you two won't disappear from our lives as you have a wealth of experience that I am sure you will be happy to share with us from time to time.
Huge Hugs
And Bye for now - - Have yourselves a much deserved rest - Be kind to yourselves and each other - Be Happy and Enjoy your next venture whatever it may be. XXXXXX

Thank you for everything Pauline and Graham xx

I know you have had lots of thank yous here (and rightly so!) but I wanted to add mine to that. This forum is invaluable, it supported me when I was new and learning and helps me every day get better at my job! It also keeps my enthusiasm going, with all the new ideas everyone shares, and encourages me to look forward always to make my business even better.
Thank you Pauline & Graham
I haven't been a member for very long but since I discovered this site it's been a lifesaver business wise on many occassions!
Thank you so much for setting up and running this site, I'm sad to see you both go but am sure it's not a decision you've made lightly. I just wanted to wish you all the best for the future and have a good rest and time for yourselves xx
I just cannot leave you to go on holiday can I , just look what you get up to
So very sad, but along as you still come on to chat then I will forgive you both , just !!! Xxx
we dont stop playing because we grow old, we grow old because we stop playing
Pauline and Graham
this must have been incredibly hard decision for you to make. I'm glad you are not leaving us but I'm glad you are able to stay in the capacity of being a forum leader/moderator without all the IT nightmares that go with it.
I'm reserving judgement about the new owners given the recent reaction to a member and her thread and hope that this will not be a reflection of things to come but having said that for childcare to take on the forum given they know how we all feel about their reaction to that thread, i think they must be brave and hopefully regret how they acted in that instance.
I wish you and Graham all the best and lots of love xx
if you do what you've always done, you'll get what you've always got
I to want to say thank you for setting this forum up, if I hadn't of found it I'm sure I would of given up before I got anywhere with out the support from here. It may not of been with me asking questions but just reading posts, knowing others are in a similar place, and more importantly at times when this job can feel lonely you know there are loads of work friends online.
Good luck and thank you once again. x
Thank you Pauline for starting the Forum and enabling me to find so many cyber friends that understand what I do cos they do it too. The support and friendship is invaluable and the ideas and advice fantastic.
Thank you Graham for helping and supporting Pauline and for getting dragged into the forum more and more as it grew bigger and bigger.
Thank you Richard for being there to allow the forum to continue
Thanks for always being there, you are bob on family is so important! All the best x
Although i don't post much as a new childminder the help, advice and information i have got from this web site has been great. Thank you so much.
I am useless with words at the best of time and everyone has said what I would say far better than I could so I won't.
but I will say a big thank you. I may not get on here as often as I can but this forum is where I turn to for help and advice before my LA (they usually give out wrong information) and is my first port of call for a lot of things.
But more than anything this forum has given me love and support through the bad times, A huge amount of friends who mean more to me than those in 'real' time. It has given me giggles and tears it has given me friends who have taught me so much about ginger lol. That is why I love the forum as someone has put it is my staff room but more than anything for me it is about friendship.
So
Pauline and Graham
love Kate

Pauline, Graham and all the members who have become my friends over the last four years - thank you. Thank you for the support, the information and the friendship I have received over the time I have been here.
I can't believe I have only just read this . I'm a bit nervous tbh but would like to thank you Pauline & Graham and hope you can spend some more quality time together with your family now.
xxxxx
