Having read this thread this morning
I think an apology is due to Frankie, who happens to be a very caring and helpful person, she has helped funsters that have needed help when in her country on holiday going above and beyond in order to do so.
You mentioned your children so she replied with knowledge she has. Unlike the UK where it is relatively easy to become a child minder it is not the same in france there you cant just decide to do it, it is more entailed and you have to know such things as she told you.
Also please bear in mind Frankies first language is French not English, which is a language she has learned because she 'likes' us English, not because she had to for a job, yet her posts are faultless.

Hi all totally agree, a specific apology is required.
Sorry Frankie, didn't mean to make an ass of myself and drag you down too, also to everyone else concerned sorry funsters, normal activity resumed.
Note to self, posting whilst wound up with hosue move issues doesn't excuse. Whilst I still have my views, there are ways of being.....whats that word........diplodocus......no..........diplomatic!!
I will be sure to post a report and let everyone know how things go..
