Depends what you like to do


Cinema - could recommend Mirror, Mirror


Lovely Walk - could recommend Shoreham in Kent (train from Peckham Rye)


Painting Crockery / Build a bear / something creative


with my 7 year old we like to cook together - and go for coffee / milk cake in a lovely cafe just the two of us - or about 1/2 hour shopping

If she's into ballet, Sadlers Wells are doing 'My First Sleeping Beauty' at the Peacock Theatre till the 13th with 2 shows a day. We went at the weekend and it was a lovely show, narrated to help understand the movements. And not too long. Places nearby too for a nice lunch afterwards.

Thanks for those. Have just got tickets for london eye as she and I love it and daddy not so keen. Like suggestion of ballet - did look at that and wonder how 'baby-ish' it would be - she's not so keen on babyish at the mo. Might well follow up with pirates afterwards - she'd like that! Thanks all

Ballet not that baby-ish at all....unless she's used to proper ballet performances. It just cuts out the longer story-telling bits (that frankly, I get lost at usually!) and focuses on the main, juicy story bits where there's more to see. The narration helps to explain the hand gestures and how they and the dancing tell the story.


If interested, it's coming to Bromley too, in May I think.

    • Please understand that I am not doubting the word of anyone who has posted here with problems with bought-in prepared meat, but (I am old) uncooked meat (perfectly 'good' meat) does smell often, we are too used to shrink wrapped and chilled supermarket meat which can be almost scent free - so we are surprised when 'butcher's' meat does smell (and often, if it is uncooked, quite strongly). Indeed game which is high can smell quite strongly, and not in a good way to our 21st C sensibilities, without being off - as in food poisoning off. Certainly prepared meat, when cooked, should smell enticing, and not at all bad - so the experiences quoted above are certainly very worrying - but younger people reading this should not be concerned, particularly, if fresh (raw) meat they have bought from e.g. a proper butchers has a smell to it. Which is not to say that something which smells rank shouldn't be a point of complaint. Even the smell of high-ish game, if left unwrapped, should dissipate once unwrapped. If it increases however it may be  cause for concern. But raw beef or lamb in the joint can often smell of something which isn't necessarily particularly nice, without it being worrying. It will tend to cook with more flavour.
