Middle daughter is 5 next month, I usually do DIY parties at home but I now have a baby to deal with as well so I really need someone else to do the entertainment, even better the food and venue as well! Something like the Pizza Express parties would be great except she doesn't like pizza! A entertainer at our house could work if they don't need tons of space but I don't think the budget will run to venue hire and entertainer.


Hit me with your ideas and wisdom!

Gambados parties are knockouts ! Affordable and fun ... and yes, most minimal effort as they do the food too. Your booking will also come with an organiser- balloon maker ! You can add extras if you like and maybe hire the mascot to grace the party for photos. All the children had fun and you don't even have to do set ups and cook !

I'd advise the horror of Gambados to be honest. You'll need a lie down and a glass of wine after, but the kids love it and it really is an 'out of the bag' option.



At 5 the crafty type ones can be tricky. We did Captured on the Rye for my 5 year old, but as a lot of his friends were still 4.5 they found cutting out their designs tricky and it was a lot of work for me and my husband (most people dropped off) so not sure I'd recommend with a baby to deal with too. Its a great option for 6/7 though.

      Chicks and ducklings

      By malumbu · Posted

      Hmmm, millions of animals are killed each year to eat in this country.  10,000 animals (maybe many more) reared to be eaten by exotic pets, dissected by students, experimented on by cosmetic and medical companies.  Why is this any different? Unless you have a vegan lifestyle most of us aren't in a position to judge.  I've not eaten meat for years, try not to buy leather and other animal products as much as possible but don't read every label, and have to live with the fact that for every female chick bred to (unaturally) lay eggs for me to eat, there will be male that is likely top be slaughtered, ditto for the cow/milk machines - again unnatural. I wasn't aware that there was this sort of market, but there must be a demand for it and doubt if it is breaking any sort of law. Happy to be proved wrong on anything and everything.

      Food poisoning at Dugard & Daughters - twice!

      By theweekend · Posted

      I don't know how spoillable food can be used as evidence in whatever imaginary CSI scenario you are imagining.  And yes, three times. One purchase was me, others were my partner. We don't check in with each other before buying meat. Twice we wrote it off as incidental. But now at three times it seems like a trend.   So the shop will be hearing from me. Though they won't ever see me again that's for sure.  I'd be happy to field any other questions you may have Sue. Your opinion really matters to me.

      If you thought they were off, would it not have been a good idea to have kept them rather than throwing them away, as evidence for Environmental Health or whoever? Or indeed the shop? And do you mean this is the third time you have bought chicken from the same shop which has been off? Have you told the shop? Why did you buy it again if you have twice previously had chicken from there which was off? Have I misunderstood?

      I found this post after we just had to throw away £14 of chicken thighs from Dugard in HH, and probably for the 3rd time. They were roasted thoroughly within an hour of purchase. But they came out of the oven smelling very woofy.  We couldn't take a single bite, they were clearly off. Pizza for dinner it is then. Very disappointing.
