Won't be eight pence for a small business for all card related costs, would go for about 30 pence once all costs are factored dependant on volume

Brockley rock is best but a bit of a trek

Local and do it every year http://www.newsshopper.co.uk/news/11670203.Restaurant_spreading_the_love_by_offering_free_meals_on_Christmas_Day/

lower the ceilings below, it makes a huge difference however it does mean a complete first floor redecorating exercise and a lot of dust

worth noting that the above link shows a house which is 12ft wide which in estate agent speak probably means practically 10ft wide on average therefore i think the link only justifies the crazy price

Think they are referring to the catford service rather than forest hill however I thought catford had more than 2 per hour.

Honor Oak Park is good for primary schools with Stillness, Dalmain and Fairlawn all performing well, not sure on Secondary schools although one of my neighbours sent their kids to secondary school in Surrey as the trains from Honor Oak practically went straight there. Some of the roads behind the high street in HOP (south side) might be in the catchment of both Stillness and Dalmain. Good Luck

Any houses around Stillness, Dalmain, Fairlawn. We went east of the tracks as I work in between Canary Wharf, Kings Cross plus travel via major airports/train stations therefore east of the tracks you have two separate train lines to choose from which comes in useful. we have a two year old and another on the way so schools was a big choice for us, have a look at the results of the above schools to see if they fit what you are looking for. P.s. Jenner Healthcare Centre is pretty good

New Art Gallery Opened in HOP on the high street

Hi Damzel, Please can you also let me know the company? (by PM if your prefer). Did you need to move out whilst the work was taking place? if so how long did you move out for? Was there a lot of dust around on your 1st floor post the completion? we have a toddler and new baby on way.

Nunheadmum - how does your loft feel with a height of 1.95m? we are considering our loft and will end up with a similar height but unsure whether it will feel boxed in for us?? especially as i am 1.8m tall.

unfortunately your premium will rise,two years ago someone hit my legally parked car and I had protected no-claims & clearly no blame in the accident. My insurance firm confirmed that it cost them ?0 in terms of the accident, yet my premium was raised by 10% which i challenged. got the answer 'computer says this policyholder was involved in an accident so the premium has gone up' its all a racket -- rant over

Sodo in HOP

Red Stripe, light, fresh etc

We had plusrooms around recently, they were impressive. Mick Mac do you know which architect and plus rooms team was used on your job? I am reading reviews saying it makes a difference.

Bumped into luciano in a lift at gatwick airport 3 weeks ago. Really great guy, started talking to my 20 month old who was singing then asked her name age etc. Showed real interest then when it was his floor said "right this is me, you all take care" Very humble guy

Thanks, certainly some food for thought and I am leaning towards getting structure including flooring in place 1st.

It would be good to hear from others that have done either a loft conversion or side returm and what they would do different second time around????

We are currently looking at doing this and in the process of getting quotes however as we talk through what we want its easy to see how the spec adds thousands. in terms of side extension we are looking at a similar design to http://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/property-46134893.html in terms of Loft we are looking at One bedroom, one study and separate shower room. even still the spec within these structures can add thousands.

Hi, Its hard to give an informed view of the quotes without knowing the vague spec.

Go honor oak park, the commute to the city, canary wharf and kings cross area is really good and primary schools are excellent plus the delights of east dulwich is not too far on the weekend

This isn't going well, I will retire from the thread now
