I have friends coming down from Highgate with their four kids this Saturday to check out Dulwich Village. They are looking to potentially buy in the area. I was going to take them on a little walking tour and spend some time in the park, but now it looks like it's going to be raining! Does anyone have an idea of what to do with four adults and six kids (combined with mine) ranging from eight months to nine years in age? Our flat is too small to host. Something that would ideally give them an idea of how charming the area is? I really want them to move here! Thanks! x

A second vote for the Horniman and then lunch at Rocca. Otherwise the picture gallery (if that's feasible for the kids) and lunch at Rocca. Basically make sure you take them to Rocca as they are so family friendly and the fun is great. Just a shame the Dog is shut (? if it is) for its refurb.

It's only a dozen or so stalls so not a major destination but good for a 10-15 minute stroll. Stall holders set up about 9.00am to 10.00am and, depending on the weather/time of year/amount of trade, are usually pretty much packed up by 5pm. It's a must for fudge, fresh popcorn, coffee, fancy hotdogs and pies plus a lot more. Must also plug Lisa E Moss jewelry stall. She's an amazing designer and has lots of high profile clients.

Really hope the weather is more like today - the autumn colours are so pretty! Def go for a proper village walk along the shops and into the Park or down to belair and Dulwich college. If it does rain, I reckon the horniman (with market!) then picture gallery would be fab x

    • Hope you all had a happy Christmas & good New Year  Here are your Gardening Tips  for February . Their not too long, but they need doing if you are to have a good garden this year  1. Pruning.  Before the birds need a nest prune your hedges especially the deciduous ones . Important to still prune Roses . Cut back Rose bushes hard to a bud & creating a rounded plant . Prune your trees before the sap rises especially Buddleja Hydrangeas hardy Fuschias Lavatera Bay Leylandii You can cut back Spring flowering tree’s after they have flowered later in Spring  Prune climbing plants like Virginia creeper & Ivy very hard . Remember they will grow back prolifically  You can prune Wisteria twice a year & February is one of them . Cut back the whips (smaller branches) to 3 buds before the main stems . You can prune a few of the thicker stems to give the plant shape & form. Give it a feed if you want it to flower  Cut back any grasses so they can grow in Spring  Prune Jasmines & winter flowering Jasmines. They will reward you with beautiful smelling flowers during Spring & Summer    2 If it ever gets dry again mow your lawn at top height of your mower. Repair patches & trim all borders with a half moon spade . It’s a good time of year to lay new lawns levelling the ground adding sand feed & topsoil    Power wash your patios paths & wooden structures & furniture. You can then give them an appropriate treatment when they have dried out  That’s it for now. I told you it wasn’t too long, Do these if you can, but if you want someone to carry it out for you, I recommend any of the we’ll recommended gardeners on the forum including myself & my colleagues  Please give me a call on :  07759862191. Well done if you managed to read this. Nigel
