This is my first input on this thread. Why do people think it is so unreasonable for people to want to be in an area without kids?


I hope to be a parent in the not too distant future, and when that day comes I'm sure I will be loking for a place where I can take mini Keef and have a pint. However, I will also be hoping that there are places I can get away from the sound of kids on the odd occasion I get a break.


I do think no children areas is an idea which just wouldn't work. However, I can't stand the view that someone who wants to keep a few child free places for grown ups to have a beer in peace, is a child hating git.

This is such a ridiculously over repeated and unneccessarily fractious thread topic.


In short it's like telly. If you don't like reality tv, don't watch it when it's on. If you're strangely in the mood for repeats of Dempsey and Makepeace then slap on a bit of uk gold for half an hour.


We all know what places and what times are prone to lots of bugaboos, and which ones aren't. Something for everyone in this fair townlet and environs of ours.

Reasonable and moderate policies in my view and already on the Manifesto of my newly-formed King Herod Childcare Foundation (motto: Infanticide - A Cure For The World's Ills) .............JUST JOKING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    • I think probably the OP is still on the old non metered system if they haven't actually signed up to the meter which was installed? If so,  the amount of water used won't affect their bill. As posted above, water bills in this area have gone up/will go up (not sure which) by more than 30%, so that would be a big increase regardless of a meter, if I've understood it correctly. I think we are paying for the privatisation of Thames Water and their greed and inefficiency, basically, but what would I know? 
    • Please could people look out for Bubble, our mainly black, and white, cat, who is a total homebody but hasn’t been seen all day. We’re on the mini roundabout of Rosendale/Turney and Dalkeith roads, if you could please check any sheds etc we’d be really grateful. He’s 12 now and a bit deaf so may have got injured or disorientated. Any news please call Claudia on 07776 303 418, thank you.
    • There are 2 of us in our house. A few weeks after we had a water meter installed and before we received our first bill, TW told us that we should be paying £70 per month to ensure we did not go into arrears. We refused to change our DD and carried on paying £40 per month.  When we eventually received our first metered bill, our usage was only about £25 per month and we were, in fact well in credit!  Also, only receiving a bill every 6 months is not very helpful, as we find it very difficult to keep tabs on what we are spending.
