Hello :-)

My other half and I are expecting our second child in October, we dont know the sex but are currently thinking of boys names since we already have a girls name picked out.

Our five year old is named Spencer Alex and the surname is Bray, my husband really likes the name Dominic for a boy and it is starting to grow on me - just wondering if people thought the two names flowed well together and what would you suggest using as a middle name? Or if you could offer an alternative to dominic which works as a sibling name that would also be appreciated x p.s we are trying to avoid names that are very popular or sound/spell "made up" x

Thanks in advance

Hi my little boy is doing a phonetics day at his nursery and the letter he has drawn is K -- we need to dress him up as something beinning with K or something along those lines... we have had Knight as an idea but because its too close to Night the nursery staff have asked us not to do that... any ideas? the more creative the better (so long as its do-able) thanks in advance x

Hi Ive recently bought a 3 month old eos 1000d from my brother - ive taken off the standard 18-55mm lens as there was a piece of fluff on the upper internal lens (the one that also has the black focus markers on it) and whilst trying to get the fluff off ive somehow scratched this lens with a cloth!!! i am absolutely gutted but alittle hopeful - since this lens has the black markers on it which arent shown on the images I have my fingers crossed that the scratches wont be on the images either... the main reason im asking you guys is because the charger has been lost so im waiting on the replacement charger ive ordered to arrive before i can test out my theory --- so in a nut shell... is this lens with the black markers actually involved in the final image/will the scratches show up? please help - thanks in advance

Hi I realise this is a long shot but I figure if anyone could help you guys could x

When I was young I had a mothergoose stuffed toy which was quite large and when you lifted one of her wings there was a cassette tape player there for nursery story tapes that the gooses beak would mouth along to I think the story tapes came in a plastic case which held about 10 tapes...

Does anyone recognise this or know what it's called? I'd love to be able to get hold of one. Thanks in advance

Hi I know this is going to sound weird but this evening my 1 and a half year old nephew has come to spend the night and we have 2 cats as soon as he saw them he got very excited and whenever he got hold of either of them he would hold them by the waist, drop to his knees and "hump" them I called his mum and she says that he does this to cushions and blankets too and she doesnt know why... Anyone have any insite on this?? Thanks

hi i know that this is a long shot but im looking for the name of a book i used to love as a kid and i want to share it with my son, the book is about a boy (horrid henryish?) who makes a sandwich for his sister and each page shows a new ingrediant i.e lettuce but with each ingredient he adds something horrible hidden away i.e - lettuce with a caterpillar under a lift up flap does anyone know this book or what its called id be very grateful if you could help x thanks x

hi my tank currently houses an absolutely adorable orando - i call him (it looks like a him) dumpling and i love him! he's currently 3 inches and very chubby, the tank was originally a community tropical tank but when i saw dumpling in the lfs i put a deposit on him and found a new home for the livestock, changed a few things in the set up x so hes now on his own in there with a very powerful fluval 4plus filter which he seems to be struggling to swim against - its improved since ive moved it higher but i was wondering if anyone could recommend a good filter which doesnt have such a powerful flow to make life easier for him maybe an external but how do they work/fit to an aquarium? thanks in advance x
