Hi, We need a kitchen fitter to sort out the door on our built in freezer. The outer door is loose on its hinges, but tricky to get at Does anyone have any recommendations? Many thanks.

Hi Rahrahrah We drive out to Minster beach on Isle of Sheppey - less than ninety minutes from here, not much tide, steep beach so deep water good for swimming

I am sure it has been mentioned before, but Derek and Roy from Finishing Point, gave great advice and service recently when stripping and painting our floors. Whole process was very easy and stress free. 0208 671 7825

Hi folks, We seem to have lots of phone cables around the house that we think no don't serve any purpose, but are reluctant to pull out. Not sure if it is a job for an electrician or a telephone engineer? Any recommendations for someone who could come and sort out?

Compton Arms - there is a memory. My old mate Barry was year below Roger at school - they bonded over the time they spent outside the headteacher's office awaiting punishment for various misdemeanours

St Saviiour's & St Olave's last OFSTED was ten years ago and they were outstanding. I assume it is a good sign if OFSTED haven't been back. The progress eight score this year was .56 "well above average" Data for Southwark here. https://www.compare-school-performance.service.gov.uk/schools-by-type?step=default&table=schools®ion=210&la-name=southwark&geographic=la&for=secondary&basedon=Overall%20performance&show=All%20pupils&datasetfilter=provisional&searchtype=&la-name=southwark Was it one of your choices?

Shouldn't this discussion be part of "tiny things that cause you irrational rage"?

Camber Sands or Broadstairs for Day Trip ?
brezzo replied to IvySnail's topic in The Family Room Discussion
margate is hard to beat for beach, and then only a short drive to Broadstairs for ice cream. Would definitely pass on Camber -
A Levels - college or local school?
brezzo replied to Angelina's topic in The Family Room Discussion
Angelina, not wanting to scare you, but it is often sixth forms with most stringent entry requirements that "cull" the most - seems to have been the case at St Olaves which is super selective at year 7 and year 12 -
A Levels - college or local school?
brezzo replied to Angelina's topic in The Family Room Discussion
Angelina, I am not sure St Olave's was a "one-off" - I am guessing plenty of grammar schools doing something like that. My professional experience is that many schools may encourage some students to move on at end of Year 12 not for league table reasons, but for best wishes of student - a view the student may not always take. (PS: I was using the worn "culling" somewhat ironically, which I now realise is never a good idea on social media) -

A Levels - college or local school?
brezzo replied to Angelina's topic in The Family Room Discussion
OK, in defence of culling and against apple pie and motherhood: What advice would you give to a student who got U or E grades at end of Year 12 in either AS exams or end of year internal exams. The grades would heavily suggest that the student in unlikely to do very well at the end of Year 13, so surely it would be just as well for that young person, to call it quits with A levels and maybe find a more suitable course or apprenticeship elsewhere? Genuine question, not trying to stir the pot -
We need a fan fitted in our gas boiler, but following some kitchen work, boiler is a little inaccessible, so we need someone with carpentry and gas skills. Any suggestions?

I would keep phoning round - schools often have unexpected spaces at this time of year with some students moving overseas or going into independent sector, Southwark has some of the best state schools in the country, so she should be able to find something. You don't say where you live, but don't forget to look at schools outside local area that are on good bus or train routes, so you can go in plenty of directions
