IT WILL BE VERY HECTIC AND THERE IS NOT MUCH SPACE - MAYBE USE THE WAITING TIME TO CHAT WITH OTHER NEW PARENTS FACE TO FACE!

or go round the corner and buy something from us in tuckshop!!

I popped in with my son's new nursmaid, and bought some sweets, I didn't know which one was Mrs C so I didn't say 'hello'

But I love the knitted frogs

Hello Mrs C, yes !

dd thought Tuckshop was wonderful, and loves her green frogglings. We were too late to pop in on new entrants day, but I am sure that you will be seeing alot more of dd

Ooops, at first glance, I read, "chatted up"! Thought we were in for a soap opera-style romance! Then re-read!

Lol

OK, back to my very first original question

Is this ok for sock ties?

It's a weird, weird thought that any member of staff might have called a volunteer "AMAZING".

Should be fine - all it needs to be is a strip of fabric that can be tied

My name tapes arrived today too, the last time I sewed a nametape I was 16 LOL

Perfect! You will have a very happy matron! Good luck with all the labelling!

Hi there

I have not read of all of this thread but after numerous sock tie methods we have settled with elastic.

Hope that helps.

Poppy - is elastic easier to tie than cotton?
Pinkhebe - which one did you choose out of the two listed?

Barnes A parents - any suggestions on where to get both house tops?
Anyone - approximate price on Cash labels?
Anyone - Any suggestions on where to get a good plain blue swimsuit for girls?
We didn't have time on entrants day to get to thrift shop. Were Cash labels sold there?
