Many thanks People.


As a child having a Birthday only 6 days after Christmas and at the end of the actual year was a pain, I mean, it was a PROPER REAL WHOLE YEAR to the next one with nothing in-between.


The "this is a big present for Xmas AND your birthday" thing was horrible and mean. Even as a small child I wanted to know why I couldnt have had small presents on both days like everybody else did.


In my mid-40s (literally now) I still get far too much excitement from opening presents, even the office secret Santa ones, which I know will be chocolate genitals or similar.


Of course a NYE Birthday now means that I always have a party to go to, although seldom with jelly and ice-cream.


Anyway, to prepare for lunch and then Party!

    • Hi everyone, we are trying to finslise our decision for enrolling our son for 3+ from September and currently considering Dulwich Prep or Herne Hill. We like both and appreciate there is no right or wrong answer but what we like about HH is great focus on early years and also being coed. However if we can avoid the 7+ stress then prefer to do that. Dulwich Prep is closer but the difference is not significant. we know children are very active and busy in DP and they have great facilities, but unlike HH, we don’t know much about their focus on personal development and emotional intelligence, etc! Also not sure about long-term impact of being in boys only school. Difficult decision for us and we appreciate feedback from parents if you can share please.    thank you
    • Yeah that was their old policy. Their new policy is to force you to have a water meter and if you refuse they put you on a punitively high tariff which effectively forces you to have one. I was doing well with my policy of polite resistance which was to say yes fine I'll have one fitted but then not actually book an appointment or cancel the appointments they made. But then I was persuaded that it would be much cheaper anyway.
