Still looking

Hi there, We are looking for someone who can help us with dropping off and picking up our two boys aged 10 and 13. Hours will roughly be 7:15-8:30 am and 3:30-6:30 during school days and longer hours during school holidays. It will be 4-5 days a week but I work from home two days a week so can be flexible. We need someone who has a full and clean driving licence and comfortable with dogs as we have a dog. It is to start from November and we would consider mid / long term. Pls get in touch if you are interested.

I am thinking of putting secondary glazing in our bed room as I hear outside noise early in the morning and it really does have impact on me. The problem is we already have double glazing windows and thick curtains but I still hear the noise. We are now thinking of putting secondary glazing. Has anyone got secondary glazing in their house. And are they effective in terms of reducing noise? And would anyone be able to offer for me to come and see those in action? thank you!

Hi, we are organising our son's 4th birthday party and thinking of hosting at Crystal Palace sports centre. They have toddlers world/ kids activity party but can't seem to find any information on line - how big the area is and what sort of equipments are provided etc. We have been trying to get the information from the organiser there but very difficult to get hold of him. Has anyone been to a party there ? If so, how is it? Look forward to having some feed back.

We parked our son's blue micro scooter at the bay on the play ground of Dulwich Park this afternoon and it disappeard. I am hoping someone took it by mistake. It has few stickers with my son's name on and his name starts with N. Please pm me if you took it by mistake or have seen it. My little one is really upset and hopes to find it. Thank you

We went to Shamwari for our honeymoon - we didn't have children at that time but I seem to remember seeing few family with children - it is a beautiful private reserve... Having said that, it may be a little bit too far from Cape Town... http://www.shamwari.com/propertydefault.asp?MicroSiteID=2

I would like to recommend David Jones from Francis stone for mortgage advise. They have been responsive and so helpful. We recently had to pull out of a purchase but David has been superb in advising not only the finance side but also general guidance on what can be done. My sister also recently used them for her house purchase an she has been more than happy with their service. We will definitely be using them for the next purchase and any other finance relates matters. See below for David's detail.

Hi I have pm'd you both

exactly same thing happened to us at the same night. I reported to the police and they came around. I have subsequently received an e-mail from them confirming the crime reference number etc. I will send him the link to this thread so that he is aware.

I second Francis stone - we have been using David Jones who also lives in ED. Very efficient and responsive - wouldn't hesitate to recommend them!

Hi all We are currently going though purchasing a house in WD. We just relived a environment search report and it reveals the house has a potential risk of surface water flooding within 25m I know the vendor has previously experienced a flooding in the basement due to heave rain / overflow of drainage. Is this something I should seriously be concerned about or is this quite common in the area? Any advice would be gratefully received. Thank you!

Lane lover, We have a very busy morning with school run with a baby and toddler. So it makes sense forus to leave the buggy in the car during the week so that we can leave on time. And besides, it was in the boot so no one could see it. I did not put this on the forum so I can be told what not to do. Thank you for your advice.

Thank you giggirl. it is very annoying... our buggy has its own serial number which I can find out but frankly, it do not think we will find it...

Live just off North Cross road in ED...

We are sure we locked the car last night but someone got into the boot and stole our beloved Bugaboo Cameleon. They stole the frame and sun canopy (orange colour) which looks like this! If anyone sees it or someone suspicious trying to sell, please let me know!!! Thank you
