Sorry to hear that James, sending best wishes to you and your family.

we had our reception at The Rosendale in West Dulwich, a few years ago now and think the management may have changed - used the garden for drinks and then there are 2 rooms upstairs, big one for dinner then dancing and a smaller room that we used for a creche and then quieter room for talking / drinking.

Hello, we used Urban and Grey sliding aluminium doors - http://urbanandgrey.co.uk/our-products/aluminium-doors/aluminium-sliding-doors/ Really slim profiles (2cm), quite expensive but lead times and fitting service was good, would recommend.

Another recommendation for Friddles! Em made a teddy bears picnic cake for my son's birthday - people are still talking about it several weeks later.

I second that goldilocks - the dyson animal is so good, worth every penny!

Thanks everyone, all good advice and very much appreciated.

Thanks so much, very useful advice :-)

Can anyone advise on the going rate for a nanny share for 2 babies both around 12 months? Nanny would be based in East dulwich, 4 days a week between 7.30am and 6pm. Many thanks.

One more recommendation for Steve from DG Services. He was prompt, polite and came in with a very reasonable quote. We had our decking jetwashed and restained, patio flagstones relaid and repointed and some unneccessary concrete "rope" edging from our front path removed, making good the resulting mess. A reliable, and conscientious guy that we would use again.

Does anyone know when the local free weaning workshops at the Albrighton Centre run in July? I can only seem to find info for the June workshops on their website...

Hi all, I'm looking for some advice from anyone who has experience of sharing a nanny with other parents. Close friends of ours have a daughter 3 weeks older than our son and we're considering sharing a nanny when the babies are around 12 months old. If anyone has experience of a similar arrangement, I'd like to know what are the pitfalls to watch out for, what were the ground rules that you agreed in advance, how easy will it be to find a nanny willing to take this on and generally is this something that other nannying employing parents would recommend. Thanks in advance!

Another recommendation for Des - great job in my son's bedroom, perfect finish, tidied up after himself and friendly pleasant chap! Des's mobile is 07971299009

does anyone know if I can take a load of cardboard to the Sainsbury's on Dog Kennel Hill for recycling?

Set of keys found yesterday on the pavement on Goodrich Road, near The Castle pub. Leather fob and plastic flip flop attached...let me know if they're yours.

We're missing bb here too, also Goodrich Road. We are on BT however, I guess the same local exchange will be being used by both them and Virgin. It's been unavailable since yesterday afternoon for us. BT are running a test for us atm...
