Hi all, sorry for silence. Have had back to back visitors and not really had a chance to get on top of emails, meet ups etc. Currently in a bit of a jam, and hoping someone may be able to help! We are currently on holiday, and have extended our stay until Tuesday but totally forgot that we had borrowed a travel pram from a friend of ours and they have promised it to another friend to take to Oz tomorrow for 6-8 weeks!!!!! ?Don't we feel awful! Anyway, we are desparately trying to find someone who would kindly lend or sell a travel pram for their friend to take to Oz, so if any of you know of anyone please let me know. ?Our friend has put an ad on the EDF, so hopefully someone will respond, but if you have any bright ideas, please drop me a line. ?Looking forward to catching up with some of you when i get back

Just walking past swings. I'm assuming we're meeting in enclosed area outside rose garden with the tree trunks and a few picnic tables?

Anyone there yet? We've got a spotty red and white blanket and a plastic dog for ease of recognition!

Hi everyone,


Wondered if anyone fancied going to the Jubilee Big Picnic Celebration on Tuesday at Aquarius Golf Club. It's on Facebook and will paste in description below:


An all afternoon celebration of Her Majesty's Diamond Jubilee. Loads of space to bring a blanket, and enjoy live music in the great green outdoors of the Aquarius Golf Club. What better way to enjoy the bank holiday! Live music includes local bluegrass/country rebels Country Dirt, and the amazing Steve Boltz & New White Trash.

Finishes at 19.00pm, so you won't be too tired for work on Wednesday!


It starts at 13.00, so I figured it could sort of be the same time as our usual meet. It's local and could be fun. What do you think?

Hey all,


Really looking forward to the Picnic - hold off rain! This is the latest from the organiser:


Today's the day!!!! The rain is definitely arriving sometime it he afternoon, so we're definitely indoors for the live music & fun activities for youngsters. Hopefully the rain will arrive late, and any kids who want to try golf will be able to ahead of the wet weather. See you all there for a brilliant line up of live music, starting around 2.00 pm!!! Let's ROCK the JUBILEE!!!!


So I think it may be a bit more indoor based than originally planned but still looks great. Lou - be great to see Nathan - I've now persuaded Neil to not work today so he'll be coming along too. Hopefully see lots of you there.


Love Linz x

Hi,


Hope you've all enjoyed the Jubilee celebrations!


I've got a 3 1/2 month old (25th Feb) and would love to meet some other mums in the area.


I think I may have met a couple of you at the Nct coffee mornings but would be great to meet up / share

Baby stories etc. on a regular basis.

Are any of you new mummies looking to go back to work soon or thinking about child care ? I am a nanny with child my little boy is 7 weeks old and I am looking to return to work around September time would anyone be interested in meeting up to discuss what I can offer . It's a great way to nanny shear without involving another family I am cheaper than a nanny but a little more than a shear


Please pm any questions

Hi all,

Hope everyone's well and enjoyed the extended weekend (everyday is a weekend for us though right?)

Anyway there are some WBC coming to The House of Tippler for my delayed 30th, engagement and general night out celebration.

Please do come and have a cocktail if you can be released from duties.

I'll be there from 7ish this fri (8th June) and I have reserved the whole back section.

Some of my NCT mum friends will be there too so should we miss our babies too much, there will be new mums to talk to!

Partners obviously also welcome.

    • Well, what a huge surprise! So, while the council digs up local footpaths to plant trees and 'green' the roads, it simultaneously offers up our parkland to private hire for a further extended period of annual damage.  It is hard to see from the map, but it looks as though the footpath that was formerly available to walk along the length of the event site of old will now also be partially used up by the new footprint, it looks like it will be partly roped off? I love how the final council report advise that 'while locals will be unable to use this nicer part of the park for a month ( and actually much of summer as it all gets churned up and has to be reseeded) that this is fine as they can just use the Common instead.    It feels wrong that the nicer part of the park is given over for festival use. I do not buy that, as has been stated, the Common is just not big enough for the Gala event.
    • No sympathy, collect rain water, reuse grey water from the house.  Plant drought gardens.  Have yellow grass in the summer, it will turn green again,.  Not sure why on earth we have this term hard working families - suggests that everyone else is lazy.  Kids cost money and that can continue until they are well into adulthood!  You make your own choices, and it is right that if you use more water you pay more.  I expect most of us have cut our water usage since going onto a meter.
    • Lheda has now been coming for over a year and has been great. She also knows which cleaning products are best to use and recommends products that we need - which have made a big difference. 
    • So following the box ticking and predictable ignoring of the 'consultation' and 'stakeholder meetings' the foregone conclusion has been reached, and the journey towards a two weekend festival, with ever increasing numbers and expanding boundaries, begins... --------------------------------------------------------- Re: GALA Music Festival – event application ref: SWKEVE000820 - NOTICE OF DECISION regarding event consultation We write to inform you that the event application submitted by Assembled GALA Ltd to hold GALA Music Festival and On the Rye Festival in Peckham Rye Park on the 23 - 26 May 2025 has been approved.
