    Default Eeeeek, High Alert, they phoned

    and they will be here in the next 5 working days. If she has not arrived by 10am then it ain't that day. I am of course talking about Ofsted....eeek!!!

    Bet you can guess what I am doing tonight

    Is it good that its the same one who did my pre reg? familiarity and all that - surely thats a good thing? especially since she can see all the massive changes I have made to the house since she last came.

    OMG! Gasp I need to put the security film on the windows of the doors - oooooohhhhh noooooooooo! pmsl! You reckon I can get away with the fact that my non walking mindee - is not a massive risk right now to make me do it - its under the stairs cupboard - but reckon the risk assessments on outings already taken place is a bit more important lol!

    Good luck.

    Mine asked me what I would do if there was a fire and I was looking after babies. I just said if I was looking after 2 at the same time I would put 1 under each arm (only thing I could think of) and she accepted that.

    Thank for the good luck messages

    Think I have it under control - well I hope I have.

    Its quite funny as we only went out and bought a puppy at the weekend - so will have that added stress as well

    I should really show I risk assessed the dog do you think?

    anyone got a dog risk assessment handy?
