You just reminded me to check! Our baby was born 5th Nov and I've just checked my bank and the backdated payment was paid in yesterday. I'd give them a call to chase it up if I were you. Have you had the birth certificate returned yet? That might be an indicator that they've received the paperwork.

Wow KateW how did you manage to get a birth certificate so fast? My baby was also born Nov 5th but registration is not till Dec 7th (I assume that's when you get certificate?)


Also where did you get the child benefit forms? I missed out on Bounty packs and the like...

Supergolden, I'm an on of those ex-East Dulwich-ers who can't give up the forum! We live in Cambridge now and hubby registered the birth when she was 4 days old! And yes, you get the certificate at the same time. You can download the child benefit forms from the gov website.

Hi Kate,


Please forgive the slightly random response to your post. I have friends in East Dulwich who thought there might be some new mums on this forum who would be interested in taking part in some paid market research for one of our clients - a major baby product brand. I work for a marketing agency called The Lounge Group, based in London Bridge. We're setting up a research project for 1st time mums with babies under 3 months or who are in their 3rd trimester of pregnancy.


In return for spending about 30 minutes each day contributing to a private Facebook discussion group with other new mums for 5 days from Mon 13th - Fri 17th December, you would be paid ?50 cash + ?50 in baby product vouchers.


If you or any of the mums you know would be interested or if you want to find out more and ask some questions, please do email me at [email protected]


Many thanks,


Sian

    • My wife has been complaining about this actually; we are on Crawthew Grove, it started a few years back, then seemed to stop, starting up again circa last September. I'm normally at work around the time she hears it most - between 11pm and 2AM, but even when I'm home I just can't hear it, which she just can't believe, so I guess it depends how sensetive your hearing is... Would love to get to the bottom of it too!
    • Perhaps like Malumbu they compost their food waste?
    • Obviously, but they may be wrong. Not only are we coming up to another population renewal drop after the continuing effects of the baby bulge generation enter a trough,  - secondary schools are closing across many boroughs - but birth rates in the UK continue to fall (not just absolute births which are also falling as a function of the bulge unwind, but births per head). And foreign student numbers are also falling. Additionally the costs of being a student are rising, which encourages more students to go to universities close enough that they don't need accommodation but can live at home. Bubbles burst, and this may be one of them.
    • Exactly. There's also a much easier way to find out how demand and supply are interacting for student housing: look at how goddamn expensive it is! It's a huge barrier to entry for students who want to study away from home. If the price of student housing cratered, this would be great news for everyone except property developers because it would cut housing costs for students and reduce some demand on "mainstream" housing in the wider market (because students won't be looking for houseshares). These property developers (and their financiers) aren't shovelling millions of pounds into student housing because they think the market is going to crash and they're going to lose money! And if they do, it's not really my problem...
