hoping someone can help or knows someone who can...hubbie hails from the '90s rave decade so looking for a solo or duo act to do a take on some of the tracks of the time by way of guitar or any other instrument. the ideal would have been the doritos mariachi band but alas budget wont stretch.

any ideas welcome!

thank you

My daughter goes there Friday mornings and absolutely loves it.Really nice staff, great selection of toys and outdoor bit. They have taken her out a few times to Goose Green playground and i have been told by a friend who happened to be there that they've taken good care of the kids and been very organised. i would definately increase the days or put her in full time when I get a job.

I live in CP myself having moved here from ED. Not sure distance to you (sme might need short bus trip) but here's some activities (some mentioned above) -

-Toddlers World soft play at CP National sports centre Mon-Thurs 10-12

-Bernardo's free playgroup at Heshima center - by far the best free playgroup in the area, really really great with lots of toys, activities, outside area & tons of staff to help out. Definately on Mondays 10-12:30 (when we go) but check as there's other times

-Pheonix Center (in front of Sainsbury's) playgroup - on Tuesdays. Good range of toys and singing towards the end of the session.

-library in CP high street - they do a singing session but cant remember what days

-CP park - really lovely playground with sandpit.

-Swimming at CP sports center - we still do this and its really great especially the amount of room you get for changing.

Hope this helps and good luck.

Darren, daisy lets are brilliant we used them ourselves in Nov. Have you considered Crystal Palace? We still own a flat in ED but decided to rent it out and rent a bigger place until the market gets better. Our budget wasnt far off yours and we're in a large house with fabulous garden and private parking, something you'd be pushed to get in ED on that sort of budget. I do still go to ED every day as its just the best place to hang out during the day or otherwise but its only 10mins drive if you have a car. Good luck with the search.
