Thanks Sam. I think that's the clincher for me, the "little differences". Things that don't seem to mean much but when you consider there are a few of them maybe they do. Then having my friend say he's just like her son. And of course the carers constantly asking about whether we've booked him or not - they obviously think it might be something. There seem to be enough signs. I can no longer just tell myself it's just because he's bright. It might be, but I can't be sure.

I have decided to definitely try and bring it forward. I need to know. And I need to know before I choose a school, and at some schools he'll have to enrol by mid next-year. So, wish me luck, I will call Maria tomorrow.
