another recommendation here for Hatched and Martin, they do a great job, always available when you need them! We just sold our house through Hatched, everyone that came and viewed it commented on how efficient and fast they were

YMCA, I would highly recommend, currently my 9 month old goes there and we are perfectly happy with the choice. We looked recently at all options in the area can advise on what we thought on others if you PM i can pass on a phone num if needed, may save you some time/effort.

The box we had delivered on saturday was wonderful thanks, good range and quality, we will definitely be placing a regular order in a few days, many thanks again. Keep up the good work Paul. P.S. Heartly recommend the ice cream nearly devoured a litre already... oh dear

Thanks for the help monstermummy and cosywolf, will battle on for now. We think its also a phase and we never liked the idea of controlled crying anyway. As for fresh air he demands at least one walk a day Tonight he calmed down a little, we think although not certain yet that sitting quietly in the same room until he falls asleep or holding his hands when walking up in the night but no noise is slowly starting to have an effect, will see how this latest plan goes anyway. Thanks again.

My 5 1/2 month old is having a few sleeping issues recently. He is still breastfed and we got him used to a bed routine since his was 1 1/2 months. His bed routine starts around 6.30 with a bath, followed by some gentle cuddle time and then a feed. He used to fall asleep almost immediately and then wake up every three hours through the night, feed then sleep again immediately. It is now one week that he suddenly does not care about his routine anymore. After the bath and the cuddles he wants a feed but then when fed he is full of energy and wants to play. We started putting him in his cot and use a bit of controlled crying but without help, he will go on clearly tired and upset for at least 2-3 hours till he finally falls asleep (usually with another feed) around 11. Then he never sleeps for much more than 2 hours, then stays awake for at least an hour often more inbetween, playing, bouncing with his legs on the bed and squealing. It looks like he has forgotten the distinction between day and night and he just naps in the night for a couple of hours and then he wants to play. He seems clearly tired at times and is definitely teething upon occasions (using bonjella and tried a herbal aid but it never rereally makes much difference). I'm unsure the lack of sleeping is totally teething related. We also started introducing him to solid foods (baby rice and carrot puree) but if anything it made him worst - we stopped giving him solids before going to bed, as that kept him even more awake, as he had too much energy. We started giving him solids (3 teaspoons) in the morning but did not make much difference. During the day he is more cranky then usual, but he still has just 2 naps of 40mins/1 hour each. He is driving us crazy as we do not manage to get any sleep in the night or relax in the evening. Any suggestion? (will ask at the clinic but our usual contact is on holiday and the replacement has proved less than helpful)

You where right i openned the front panel and multimeter'd the fuses and one was shot in 10 mins i had repaired it, now all working fine. No idea what casued it to short however. Thanks for the brilliant advice GavBriggs.

:help: :help: Any speedy reply appreciated (my very pregnant wife is getting cold and I need to sort this ASAP!!!) I have a worchester 350 which now appears dead, (i.e. no lights and illumination on the controls), the electrics going into the machine is ok and no problems previously with the entire system. I guess?? (please advise if niave) the fault is either the circuit board or the electronic thermostat both of which for this boiler are expensive parts checking online. So normally I would get a recomended private CORGI man man to fix it but as the parts are expensive am i better getting british gas to fix it as they offer a single payment of £144 and offer to come the next day. I would go for it but I have heard a number of scary stories. :help: :help:

he is travelling to sheffield, but only for a 6 hour meeting hence the desire to not spalsh out on anything pricy

Can anyone recomend a suitable venue? I need to have a meeting in Sheffield with a work contact, my office will be unavailable at the time but i need an inexpensive but quiet meeting place with wireless internet access. Does anyone have any ideas that could be suitable?

A regular cleaner, yes (i think you will find it near impossible to find a one off cleaner, not sure if you intend this). The guy who does our house is deaf, so its hard to put you in communication but we can pass a message so to the guys brother who can get in contact if you want it setting up. Let us know some contact details via PM if you are interested.

for the library one here is a good way to get access to some of the images as they are slowly being digitised http://www.picturesheffield.com/ anyway good luck and if you need any specific help with online image access PM me and i may be able to advise.

There a very large number under the free to reuse licenses in flickr easy to get hold of and no problem to reuse for free e.g. http://www.flickr.com/search/?w=all&q=sheffield&m=text there are a number of groups on flickr such as the sheffield group with 6000 plus images http://www.flickr.com/search/groups/?w=all&q=sheffield&m=names have a quick search and I'm sure you can find something if not post a request for specific images there as many sheffield based photographers who will be willing to help.

I will probably try this weekend also if i get time especially as it is physically so near (to you too i guess)
