Was really nervous when I went to the clinic at Camberwell but boy, were they lovely. Yes, had to wait but staff lovely and treatment painless.

The guys at Herne Hill Velodrome might welcome the chance to speak on your podcast...

London Spin Doctor would be able to help you with that - they don't just do washing machines.

My Miele has been tried and tested over the last eight years and is still going strong with never any problems. I have a house full of sporty boys and it is not unusual for me to do four washes daily (sports gear, bedding). Worth every single penny of it's initial outlay.

I've never done it but my feeling is that teachers really hate it because while you have been off having a lovely holiday, they then have to work hard to catch your child up upon their return. Not sure how this would affect such a young age group though. Personally I would have a quiet word with the school.

Im sorry, is it just me but I'm dying to know about what went on in the back of the jeans shop! Tell us more!

Isn't there a cat charity nearby which would use things like this for their bedding?

East Dulwich boy plays one of the "Declan" roles...

When you could go and visit the horses in the stables behind the police station (which is now the new primary school on the corner of lordship lane and whately road). The police would almost always let you in to pet them if you asked nicely - this would've been around 1981/2.

The delightful Spin Doctor arrived today and fixed my dishwasher (after the Neff man didn't). He came when he said he would, did the job quickly and it was less than half the price of Neff's call out engineer. Going to replace seal on the washing machine for me next .... Would recommend very much.

I requested a collection well before Christmas, and stumped up the ?16, but no sign of my items being removed. Lousy service...

Hahaha Sillywoman? you are so right! Enjoy should listen to you - I forgot how fickle kids can be and she'll want what everyone else has by Christmas as you say:)

I would definitely NOT get messenger bag - they carry large amounts of books which are extremely heavy and will hurt when carried on one shoulder. Go for a rucksack type? Plus, they have to carry sports kit, musical instruments etc and two spare hands is great.
