Hi all - we've moved the blog to a new design, will post again soon (still waiting and chasing!) http://bit.ly/d0LuAR
@inca2 ah thanks :-) Patience is running out now. I chase but get no reply, just got to keep waiting I guess........
@AdoptionAli still waiting around, I am fast losing faith in our LA. Nothing to report unfortunately. How are you doing? What's the latest?
@AdoptionAli hey just read your updates! Fantastic news, fingers crossed for you x
Another adoption lesson learnt: CRB forms take bloody ages (3 months for us). CRB's are vital but can't it be faster?
3 months on and CRB forms only just come back.!! Medicals for us today and Tuesday - finally things are moving slightly again.
