A normal, intelligent child then.

Well done!

I solved that by putting down a wood floor in the hall ;-)

1. Throw away your VCR. It'll never work again, after being stuffed full of toys etc. As an aside, we had a cheapo combined TV/VCR which jammed. Contacted Tesco, the supplier, who changed it immediately, no problem (about 10 months after purchase). Brought replacement home, and James immediately cried for the old one, because he wanted his toy car, which was 'parked' in the old one ...
2. Tie string around the fridge. Nothing else will work.
3. Check the contents of bins before 'bin day'. James had a habit of putting anything and everything in the bin, for reasons we never discovered.
4. Never leave a cup of tea unattended. Just make it, and drink it.
5. Don't bother decorating a Christmas tree this year :-)

Thanks to all for the words of wisdom and amusing (?) stories, certainly got quite a bit more to go at now!

Cheers,

Alex
