untilLocal artist Joe Thomas will be sketching his super popular fast portraits outside the Jane Newbery gallery in Dulwich Village on Saturday and Sunday. Taking 5-10 minutes, Joe’s colourful and dynamic portraits cost from £25, make superb gifts and are great for families and couples. Fascinating to watch, sittings are done on a first-come-first-drawn basis. Follow @jthmsart on Instagram to make any special requests.

Families & Kids Fast Portraits by Local Artist - 41 Dulwich Village
Jose posted an event in Kids Events
Come and get your kids / families / couples portraits drawn by local artist Joe Thomas. Sittings are drop-in and will last from 5-7 minutes at 41 Dulwich Village (the old Biff shoe shop - RIP). It's a brilliantly fun experience, in which you'll not only witness how you / your kids CAN be still and you'll get something cool to hang on your walls. A. couple of examples from last weekend's sittings - https://www.instagram.com/jthmsart/ where you'll also be able to message me to reserve a slot (but its mostly drop-ins and a short wait!) There are 4 other awesome artists and makers selling their work, so call by and pick something up, or just watch the process in action. I'll be mostly working in chalk & pen on heavyweight black art paper. £25 for a solo £30 for couples / pairs £35 for families (3 or more sitters at once) -

attack near ED station (Thursday 29th March 2012)
Jose replied to tfayers's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
This is awful A similar thing happened to my fiancee last month - followed from outside ED Station through the park to Sainsbury's where she was grabbed from behind & wrestled onto the floor. She was attacked from behind for her phone and the guy didn't say much, but the most alarming thing was that it all happened at 2 pm on a busy Saturday afternoon in broad daylight. According to some witnesses, they guy had been walking up & down the parade of shops waiting for easy victims to emerge from the station to then follow until they have an opportunity. In the case, the guy ran off towards the estate on DKH. The impacts of these attacks always goes much deeper than bumps, bruises and stolen blackberries and I'd really welcome more police deployments around the station or anything else that genuinely helps protect -

Waitrose plans take a twist with a space soon to be available at the Tesco on ED Road. Seriously, do people riot when a member of the public kills another member of the public? MyNameHere's post really strikes a chord - good words.

Hi My daughter seems to always struggle with congestion at night. In the past I thought it was always the onset of a cold and whilst she is quite coldy generally (occasional sneezing and runny nose) she seems to really get bunged up in the evenings so her sleep is very unsettled. In the morning I often have to clean her nasal passages but she spends the rest of the day relatively snuffle free (except for if she has a big crying fit in which case the nostril are full!). I heard that you can get some plug-in thing that will help her breath at night, does anyone know what this is? I always use thyme oil and snufflerub but it only offers brief respite for her. Any advice welcome! Thanks Jenny

Brilliant midwife/antenatal classes - Sofie Jacobs
Jose posted a topic in The Family Room Discussion
Hi I've just finished a 6 week antenatal class with Sofie Jacobs - [www.sofiejacobs.com]. She started her classes in Greenwich and I was on the first course she had done in East Dulwich which is held on a Thursday evening at the Mag. I can really recommend her as an unbiased, helpful and passionate midwife who clearly loves what she does and offers fantastic support and advice. I didn't do NCT classes because i'd heard mixed reviews and the timing wasnt great for my due date but found Sofie on this forum and want to give a massive thanks to her for being so great!! She offered me a lot of support on the phone outside of the classes for which I am very grateful! If you live in the area and you are looking for a thorough and friendly antenatal course then I can't recommend her highly enough! Jenny -
Hi, not sure if this is helpful but I'm expecting in February and have just finished a course with a midwife called Sofie Jacobs. She did a great session on breastfeeding and I know she does private consultations for problematic feeding patterns. She has contact details on her website so google her. I only have experience of her advice as I'm not there yet but I really trusted what she was saying. Perhaps worth it if you tearing your hair out and have no other answers! Jenny

I am 33 weeks and have had it this morning. I feel absolutely fine and they said worst case is you feel a bit groggy but I have nothing. My midwife said there is nothing to lose and my mother in law is a GP and she thoroughly recommended it. I think the risks of contracting swine flu are very dangerous to you and the baby and there are no known risks to the unborn baby so it actually feels like quite a responsible thing to do. Read a few articles and they were all quite pro-vaccine. The nurse this morning just said that it is the same decision you will have to make when you decide whether to vaccinate your baby. Jenny

Hey Does anyone know whether there are any good sales coming up in the Dulwich area for baby things, we need to get a load of stuff and have been keeping an eye on the classifieds but would be interested in seeing whether there were any organised sales as well? Thanks

Which is the best GP surgery in ED to be with when pregnant?
Jose replied to james84's topic in The Family Room Discussion
i had a bad experience with the DMC last year so swapped to The Gardens but the midwife there is dreadful so avoid!!!! Having just finished antenatal classes with a few ladies who are with the Oakwood and the Lanes midwives I suggest you def try and get in with one of these, its a minefield understanding the care you should be getting so good luck! -
sam, Must declare i have a commercial interest with google, but have been using the g1 / google phone - the touchscreen is genuinely good, plus the qwerty keyboard is nice for texting and emailing,and is has enough other buttons / roller ball on it then you can use it with gloves on - also the web browsing is mega. That said, it isn't as nice to look at as the tocco or iphone and the battery life is a little flakey, although the android platform / OS it uses is really enjoyable to use and you can download tonnes of different applications
