I started a thread about this a while ago and got some good responses:

I did Coder Dojo with my daughter recently in Victoria and it was good though alarmingly I found myself having to help her as it was less 'taught' than I anticipated, which meant we had to work out quite a lot ourselves (we were creating a website). So that was ... interesting, given my non-existent knowledge of coding. Still it was free and I'm sure we will go back - I'll be a bit more prepared next time!


I looked into Spark4Kids and it sounds good but it's eye-wateringly expensive. And I have now twice emailed Codeclub.org.uk as apparently they run one at Dulwich Hamlet but I have never heard back. If anyone knows anything about this club I'd be interested to hear about it, but I'm assuming it's now defunct.

Thanks Redjam and Norfolkvillas for your swift responses. She programs in the afternoon on my laptop but asks me questions and sadly I'm quite ill equipped. I need to look at it properly to help her. I will look into the workshops. She's very computer literate for her age so I'm keen to encourage her. Thanks x
There is a coding club at Peckham Library that my daughter attends on Tuesdays from 4pm to 6pm and is free. Unfortunately, the project is coming to an end soon but if there is interest they may run more classes again. If the location and time is convenient please PM me with your contact details and I can keep you informed.

    • I watched this BBC expose on the news a week or so ago and wasn’t surprised at what they found although ii’s shocking when you see what the Police uncover. The amount of nail bars in London appearing almost daily is also cause for concern. What I can’t understand is the places that were raided had thousands and thousands of pounds of unpaid gas, electric etc bills. 
    • GPs are general practitioners, hence the name; they are not specialists.  Specialist doctors only work in hospitals.  Each GP surgery has a catchment area; you cannot just choose a GP because you think they are the best match for your health condition, you have to be in their catchment.  If you are not happy with the one you are currently with, ring round the others nearby and find an alternative who is able to take you.  Then, work with your hospital clinic and the GP together to maintain your health. As an aside, I have a chronic autoimmune condition and have had no problems with the shared care of my GP (The Gardens) and hospital consultant ( I am under Prof Heneghan).  I visit the clinic twice a year, they advise my GP of any changes and the GP does my prescriptions (which include a controlled drug) and my blood tests in between.  When there has been any queries about compatibility or suitability of a treatment, the GP contacts the team at Kings for advice.  The system works perfectly.   Good luck with your change of GP and give them any hospital letters when you sign up.  A GP along cannot manage your condition, so you will need to ask your hospital specialists to set up a new shared care agreement with your new GP (this has to be done this way; a GP cannot set that up).     
    • How can one have the confidence that it is not the barista cutting your hair and the barber making your coffee? 
    • We went as a family of four in October. Flights were OK (Cathy Pacific, in their January sale) and accommodation was relatively expensive in Tokyo (definitely not £30 a night) but food/drink/transport/shopping were way cheaper. Easy to feed four of us in an izakaya for £40 including drinks. Shops like muji & Uniqlo half the price they are here. We ended up needing to buy an extra suitcase. Was an incredible trip
