Hi guys,

Thank you so much for all your advice and support...it really made me feel a lot less worried about the whole thing.

Well, I decided on Monday I was going to try him in his underwear at creche. I psyched him up on Sunday night telling him that tomorrow he would be wearing his underwear and that he would need to wee in the potty (I may have also indicated a lolly would be involved!)
Monday came and when I picked him up from creche he had had 1 little accident
Tuesday I took his potty with him to creche because I sensed he was a little hesitant with the creche toilet and since then we haven't looked back (yet!! touch wood as it's still early days!)

Even to our amazement, we put him in the TV room last night with a movie on and his potty in the corner, we went in a little while later to find wee in the potty. After DF and I had confimed neither of us had helped him out of his pants and underwear - we congratulated our little man on going to the potty all on his own! He has done the same today!
I am absolutely thrilled! He has been so good about it. I think I was so worried about forcing him, I didn't want to initiate anything...and thought he would when he was ready. As it turned out, maybe he was just waiting for us to help him make the transition. We've also been using A LOT of positive reinforcement so he's really lapping it up!!

Once again thank you all so much...and hopefully he just keeps it up =)
