I have been thinking recently how much easier bedtime/story time would be if I had a large(rocking)chair. At the moment I have two rather chubby kids sitting on my lap and between milk, cuddlies and kids, I can barely read the book. I wondered if anyone has any suggestions. I know I could make the older one sit in his bed but we quite like that wind down time and the cuddles. Thanks.
I have been wondering how to do 2 when the time comes. At the moment it works with seperate bed times, but it does mean that bed time can be rather lengthy. I think the cuddle is very important, as it helps them get all warm and snuggly. If they are lying in their bed it is not quite the same thing, is it?
To be honest, it is doable in a regular plain/rocking/nursing chair; just not the most comfortable thing. I think maybe I need to look at a large-ish armchair. I think the rocking aspect is maybe less important than fitting in the chair the 3 of us and having some nice quiet time before they go to bed after the non-stop running around of the day.

    • In  parts of Europe you just get charged tax at the end of your stay somewhere. Usually a couple of quid added to your bill. Most tourists are pretty happy to stump up the cost, as it's an expected expense.  I  think it's a good way to make money and remove the burden from locals.  It's for foreigners, Sue - I'm sure Londoners and brits will still be able to freely cross the borough lines without having to go through checkpoint charlie 🙂 
    • It doesn't work like that. There won't be differential pricing for tourists and residents at any attractions, checkpoints or a requirement to carry one's papers with one at all times. A levy is put on hotels, maybe on Air B&Bs, on a bed per night basis. That cash goes to Southwark. It's pretty easy to administer.
    • Don't see an issue at all. Sounds like the protest is being made by friends and families of the two off licences, Morleys, pret and maxim chicken who are within 100 m of the school. Much ado about nothing. Besides if it doesn't proceed, the kids will walk a but further!!
    • Whilst I agree to some extent,  are they going to have some kind of checkpoint?  I can't see how this could work in practice. Surely Southwark residents go to these places quite frequently as well, particularly Tate Modern?  Will we have to take proof of residency every time we go out? What happens when family are with us who don't live in Southwark? Will other London boroughs start doing the same thing? Will Southwark residents be charged a tourist tax to visit "tourist attractions" in other areas, eg the V&A and the British Museum?
