Hi Folks

There seems to be a bit of a run going on reporting short-articles.

Please be aware that there is no rule regarding the length of an article and being "less than 50 words" is not in breach of any of our Terms of Service or Code of Honor.

If an article is poor quality because of it's length then please vote accordingly rather than going straight for the "report" flag.

Also many pieces of advice will "look" like a blog post BUT so long as there is a hint of advice in the article it should NOT be reported but again voted on accordingly, or it might be good to encourage the author by posting a comment "this is great but could probably serve you better as a post to your personal blog as article pages are generally used for article style writing"

I would really appreciate people taking the time to consider carefully whether reporting an article (which is often a very negative experience for the author) is really required and perhaps taking some alternative approaches.

thanks

We recently returned from a trip to Switzerland to introduce Hamish to his Grandparents and took a train from Bern to see some old friends who live in Milan.

Whilst there Hamish got into the spirit of the fashion capital of the world and decided to do his bext Karl Lagerfeld impersonation.  It is one of my favourite photos of him and I thought it would be nice to share with you folks at Minti.

Hamish is doing well but not quite sleeping through the night yet (3am wake-up) and he is very large for his age.

All the best to my Minti mates !
