Anyone have any recommendations for best birthpool brand to buy for upcoming home birth (fingers crossed)? Am a bit flummoxed by choice on line and wondered if people had any personal experience to share in terms of brands that worked well? Also we have a fancy tap in kitchen (design over substance) and no way are we going to be able to attach hose to it- can you fill a birthpool with cold water from outside tap partially and then heat up w boiling water I wonder? Otherwise bucket might have to do...

Birth pool in a box is the most common (so easier to sell on and get replacement bits!). You can send it back if unopened too. You can get one second hand and buy a new kit (liner/hose etc).

As for the tap, it'd be a lot of kettles! They're big and it needs to be deep. I would suggest speaking to the company you buy off? We have a fancy tap and the attachments worked for us.

Good luck - both water and home births are amazing!

      Dog Kennel Hill School to change name

      By FatherJack · Posted

      DKH was two form entry, it is now one form entry to cope with the fact it was far more under subscribed than other schools in the area. They had actually combined year groups into single classes, 3/4 and 5/6.  When a school changes name, it’s usually because of a bad reputation perhaps the results.  The new name is dry with no history unlike its current name. It’s a very sketchy decision. It’s an expensive vanity project for someone.  What  will happen if the name change does not increase applications to the school?

      Nasty kids in Peckham Park

      By MCK100 · Posted

      @first mate I assume Alice made a mistake, as she removed her reaction.  I was wondering about park wardens. As I said, there was one there last night, who was incredibly helpful and proactive. As well as bringing me to the police, he caught up with a young guy on a bike who'd earlier been the victim of an attempted theft by these kids and linked him up with the police too. But I do wonder, as I've only very occasionally seen him riding around, how many they have and what hours they patrol. I've no doubt they'd be a strong deterrent if they had a better presence. They were nowhere to be seen the first time around.  Update: I've just found this: https://services.southwark.gov.uk/community-safety/community-wardens The guy in the photo at the bottom of the page was the lovely warden of last night and I've just now remembered him telling me he's based in Burgess Park. Anyway, there needs to be more of them, as I rarely see one in Peckham.

      Some of us oldies would associate Grove with the old Grove Vale School (which I went to in the 1950s)
