Hi Chole - I am in the same situation as you and have opted for Lewisham. My child's op is an ENT one and I was told it was the same consultant and team from Evelina who are doing some operations on Fridays in Lewisham. I think it is a way of cutting waiting lists down. I have had experience of Lewisham some years ago when I had my first child and received great care. Having said that, the Evelina is undoubtedly an amazing place but it depends whether you want to wait or not.

Hi there - I have a stack of old VHS videos that we no longer want (kids shows and some films etc). Does anyone know how/where to pass these on? I'm not sure that charity shops accept them anymore do they and I can't bear to throw them away.Is there anywhere locally they can be recycled in some way? Any advice v welcome? Thanks

Poppers might work better since you could sew these easily by hand.

I second fabrics galore - good for the kind of thing you are looking for.

HI there - Just wondering if anyone's kids are collecting the Panini adrenalyn XL cards for the world cup (not the stickers!). If so and you want to do some swaps then drop me a pm telling me what you have/need. We have loads to swap. Thanks.

All saints Church peckham, on Blenheim Grove also has a nativity/Christingle service on Christmas Eve at 4pm. It's great for the kids. You'd be very welcome.

The how to train your dragon books by Cressida cowell are great and perfect for a 7 year old boy. Mine love them.
