Little snowboarder is bored of his usual haunts of Dulwich park/goosegreen/Peckham rye/horniman sandpit - is there anywhere maybe a bit further afield but not too far that might suit? Is there anywhere at crystal palace park maybe? He has far too much energy....and a new bike and scooter to use!

Myatt's Fields in Camberwell is definitely worth a visit. Amazing playground equipment and nice little park. Think there's parking though we got the bus and walked from kings. There's also a really nice playground near St Thomas's a bit further afield but if you fancy a trip to the river it's good to know about. Have fun!

Hilly Fields in Brockley, or Ladywell Fields in Ladywell... We live close to both, happy to meet up and have you over to ours for tea and bicuits. We're around most afternoons.


Little Saff and I are joining friends at Crystal Palace one o'clock club Monday morning around 10:30am... I'm the *really* tired looking blonde with hugly outgoing 1 yo daughter.

Battersea Park also good & has the little zoo too (you have to pay to get in).


I love Telegraph Hill as already mentioned, there's a 1 o'clock club there too, also open Saturday mornings, when it mostly seems to be Dads & children!


Greenwich park playground good, big with lots if sand too but if you park up the top (pay & display) it's quite a big hill to push the buggy back up (especially a loaded P&T - not sure I'd manage that!).


Kensington Gardens - PD Memorial Playground is fab, but probably a bit ambitious with toddler plus newborn unless you're feeling adventurous - I kept losing O in there when she was 2 as it's big & there were masses of children so you do have to literally follow then around which I find tedious (lazy mummy).


Nice new little playground for under 5s at Burgess Park, with water jets outside fenced in area & also the new cafe overlooking the playground. Parking close by though it does get busy - small car park.


Playground behind Honor Oak Park Station quite nice, a bit different at least. Easy parking shared with cemetery right next to it - turn left into it as you drive down hill towards the station after the allotments, down narrow drive then park to right and walk up the path on the right with cemetery on your left.


Have fun!

Where in Telegraph Hill park is the playground? Never been in the actual park - can you park the car at the church / community centre at the top of the hill (just before the roundabout) and walk down? I just know there's an entrance to the park there but have no idea where things are located and if you can walk down the hill with a buggy.

If you park at the church/community centre, the park is off on either side. I think the bit behind the church is smaller and the bit with the playground is across the road from the community centre. One O'clock club open from 9 or 9.30 and does tea/coffee and toast. There was a van that used to do nice coffee and lunch-ey stuff (nearer lunchtime/afternoon and I suspect, only when the weather improves). And there's a cafe by the community centre too - but never actually been there. Loads of parking. Not a massive playground but the slide is a bit different for a change and the one o'clock always has plenty of cars/bikes/scooters etc out.


Now I'm talking about it, might just head up there tomorrow. Haven't been for ages!

The cafe by the community centre is lovely. They are child-friendly, but they do have a 'queit day' on Fridays. Can't say I think much of the 1 o'clock club at Telegraph Hill though. The only time I have ever been there, the staff were extremely rude, didn't say hello, and shouted at me when I accidentally parked my buggy in the wrong place! Not to mention it was fairly dirty inside as well... That was a while back, maybe things have changed. Dunno. Crystal Palace gets my vote for its 1 o'clock club. Much nicer.

    • Unfortunately Nissan was a disaster of a company when it created your car and still is, and most recently created another combined disaster alliance with Renault. Be aware, the trade value on your car is really low as no one wants to do the work & it's often only when it reaches near scrap value that someone (else) is willing to invest (their money) to try and fix. So if you're willing to front the money and fix your car that (you know) then that is most likely your best option (also understanding that it is outrageous that you should have to replace a CVT gearbox after 50K). If that isn't appealing consider a new Skoda Fabia 1.0 (Auto) on finance if you can't afford cash, it will last 20yrs.... (and avoid cars from the Stellantis group)
    • If you are referring to me, I was using my mobile. Just quoting the post I was replying to would have made no sense without showing my original post as well. I wouldn't have been able to do that on a "real PC" either, assuming I carried one around with me everywhere. It's nothing to do with what I'm using, it's the way the forum is set up to quote posts. I did insert a screenshot showing the keyboard by mistake.
    • You have to book for the Sunday roasts in advance. I have bad memories of once going for a circular  walk around Downe and then trying to eat. The Queens Head staff (and customers)  looked at us as if we were mad for attempting to get a meal without booking. The other pub in the village  reeked of bleach.  We had to  drive around in search of a meal, and ended up at some large pub whose name and location  I have thankfully forgotten. All I remember is the food, which was truly awful.
