<commercial break> I found the ultimate childproof lock for drawers and doors that don't need to be opened too often. Duckttape. No serious, it really works great and is very cheap. Also our livingroom table has a fitted glass top supported by a chrome frame. Of course little Tom likes to push it up with his feet. I taped the top to the frame, for the time being. Oh and I also used the duckttape as a design thingy. I had this really bad wallpaper (as in quality wise bad), for Tom's room. Cutting it off creating neat edges on the ceiling was an absolute nightmare. Totally frayed. So I put the duckttape up to make clean edges in contrasting colors. It looks like a totally legitemate wallpaper border. Looks really neat and great. I simply love duckttape. :o) </commercial break> <insert announcers voice> We now return you to your regular Brin-L mail </insert announcers voice> Sonja
