Tescos grocery delivery - rubbish
Norfolkvillas replied to Fuschia's topic in The Family Room Discussion
How hugely annoying! We've used Ocado for quite a few years and have never ever experienced any unreliability, other than very occasionally being offered a replacement item for something that was out of stock (maybe once every couple of months). Currently having big arguments with my other half about whether or not it really IS much more expensive than alternatives. He goes to Sainsbury's and definitely spends ?30 less but comes back without nappies, baby milk, wetwipes etc.... so I've never had much luck actually comparing apples with apples. My gut feeling is that Ocado is probably not much more expensive, and if it did come out at a fiver more a week, that would be justified by convenience, reliability, easy and speed of shopping etc. Now I just need to convince my husband.... -
Who hangs out with their parents?
Norfolkvillas replied to Saila's topic in The Family Room Discussion
Since the arrival of our first baby, my parents are now planning to move closer to London to see more of us. I would love to have them round the corner. One of the loveliest aspects of becoming a parent has been seeing how much love and positivity its created within my family. -
Our cleaner regularly does less hours than I pay her for, and more often than not comes with someone else (without asking). The job is done, and I feel that the total I pay her is very reasonable for cleaning our house and doing our ironing, so I've never once considered it a problem. I do very much see it as a flat fee for a job completed, so the time it takes is immaterial. As our cleaner, who's been with us for some years, also works for at least 10 of my friends, colleagues, family across London, I just can't see her ever abusing our trust...

former East Dulwich councillor - how can I help?
Norfolkvillas replied to James Barber's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
Hi there, I notice that there are quite a few yellow spots on Whateley Road but it would be great to have some more trees after Whateley turns into Underhill, specifically at or near the corner of Friern and Underhill Roads. Thanks! -

Hi there, Calcot Manor in the Cotswolds is meant to be fab for kids and adults alike, ditto Ickworth in Suffolk and Wooley Grange in Wiltshire.

Bumps and Babes from 12 months?
Norfolkvillas replied to Lochie's topic in The Family Room Discussion
Beababies - I would definitely be interested in finding out more about the Tuesday afternoon class. I don't work on Tues and Thurs afternoons, but most other ED classes I've found seem to happen in the mornings... -
Hi there, apols if you've already been reunited with the correct scooter, but we were in the park today and as I left, I thought I spotted a signed taped to the gate saying something about a blue mini scooter having been taken and some contact details... Thinking about it, perhaps it was your own sign for the other scooter owner. Oh well, thought I'd let you know just in case it's useful...
