I still haven?t got email but got a message via the app at 6.45. So stressful waiting I was beginning to wonder whether I?d applied at all! Got St Thomas the Apostle.

Am I being unreasonable? In order to take my kids swimming I have had to "join" for free. This involved filling out personal details for all five members of my family, including date of birth, email, emergency phone numbers. The website apparently does not work very well and I was initially unable to enter my phone number. Finally the website accepted my phone number but then timed out when I attempted to submit the form and I now have to start again. You cannot just turn up and pay and go swimming. I was told this is for health and safety and safeguarding but I suspect it's a more cynical harvesting of personal data. Shouldn't they be encouraging people to exercise? I'm exasperated and have wasted nearly an hour on their hard to navigate website three phone call and still haven't managed to register.

Without wishing to alarm people, I wanted to post this so people can be aware and vigilant. Last night at about 10.15pm my husband was walking down Lordship Lane near M&S. He has his phone in his hand, and two guys on a moped mounted the pavement and attempted to steal his phone. Fortunately the phone dropped on the ground and they rode off. The police were informed. Stay safe everyone.

Yesterday I accidentally left my daughter's Frozen scooter by the red post box on Crystal Palace rd near approximately no 40. It's new and a present from her Grandpa. If anyone has it please let me know. Thanks

Where can you get the eclipse viewing glasses from?

Does anyway have a Mclaren buggy they are looking to sell? Thx.

First Steps on Upland Rd is fantastic!

Can anyone recommend the cheapest place to get these? Many thanks

Does anyone know what the catchment is for Dulwich Hamlets? What do people do at 7 from Dulwich CofE school if you are not close enough to Dulwich Hamlets? Many thanks

Any advice on how crowded/slow his bus is from ED to Rosemead during term time? Thanks

I have a German au pair arriving in August and was wondering whether anyone could recommend English classes / au pair social groups? Many thanks

I mixture of "no veg no ice-cream" and going OTT with praise (clapping and cheering while standing on a chair and stars) when a vegetable was eaten has worked. My son now says he likes broccoli. (okay he will eat sweet stuff all the time if he had a chance...) Good luck!

Does anyone have any views on this? (I don't particularly want to get into the pros and cons of faith schools - just want some feedback on this school as I had not heard of it and am potentially interested). Many thanks

Is anyone else's green already full, with over a week until it's going to collected...? It seems ridiculous that the pilot is over the winter, I would have thought seeing how it goes over the hot months is vital. I completely agree with Charlie, this does not seem to be a genuine pilot.

ok I should have looked on internet - Tesco and ELC!
