    Less paperwork would be second on my list, my first would be a nice big playroom, with it's own toilet, nappy changing area etc, so that it was all completely separate to my house.

    Tax credits to be paid straight to me instead of parents, so they can't make excuses that it hasn't been paid into their bank account yet.

    Looks a bit toooo perfect to me
