Really good.
He didn't mention this at first so I didn't either. Some time during the afternoon he seemed to remember and told me. He was very proud! I let him know how proud I was too. He later told me that next time he needs to do this he will just go to my toilet 'in privacy'.
During the evening DD told me he just took himself off to the bathroom and did the deed again.
So I think we confidently say we have cracked it

Aww Gem. What a lovely thing to say. And I bet he feels very grown up now he a fully independent toileter. Your DD must be pleased too. When does he go to build his Build a Bear Doggy? 😍😍😍

I give him the same food as they do yes, Daisy. Tortellini with pesto, olives ands mushrooms is his favourite tea! Invariably cheese sandwiches, with cucumber and carrot sticks for lunch, with fruit and yogurt after. I offer all sorts of alternatives but 9 times out of 10 cheese sandwiches are chosen! I give him some treats too, Pomm bear crisp snacks, Jaffa cakes and biscuits, but mostly he snacks on fruit.

Gem - GD2 nearly always opt for the same lunch - deconstructed cheese sandwiches, grapes and/or banana and yoghurt. If you ask her what she would like on her sandwich she always replies 'just all butter', and then takes the sandwich apart to eat it!
My store cupboard standby for a snack is the Goodies date bars - she loves them.
