  1. Remember there is also the possibility to Home Educate if you aren't happy with your school choice. School places... Did you get the school you wanted? Or even a place at all? Did you know that school is not compulsory? Or that education doesn't have to start until the term after their fifth birthday? There are options other than school such as HOME EDUCATION and boy it's nothing like you'd imagine: ?you don't have to be a teacher or well educated ? there's no forced curriculums, lessons or tests ? you can allow your child to have a say in their education ?there's loads of groups around the country and plenty of home edders ready to befriend you, so no reason to feel isolated ? it's amazing fun (and sometimes hard work). Please get in touch if you'd like to know more as I Home Educate since I wasn't happy with the school my son went to . I understand it's not for everyone but I thought people should know there is an alternative if they aren't happy with their school place .

  5. You had to choose your date online and then they email a definite date .
  6. I had my bulky waste collected today also , bizarrely online you have to list everything you want collecting and your address but then I got an email asking me to list everything again as well as my address which I annoyingly informed them that this was asked already online. I was given a reference number and told to put the numbers on the items which I did . They did actually ring my doorbell to inform me that one item I had left out isn't what they are usually allowed to take ( but which I had stated on my form and email that I wanted collected ) but that they would take it anyway for me . The online form isn't good either as it doesn't list all the items on the drop down box ( I had curtain poles which wasn't list in the drop down box as well as an ottoman box ) . Lots of room for improvement.

  15. The Pet Shop on North Cross is called Mac and Milly? A toy shop I think judging by Google .
  16. James Barber, not sure if you have seen the thread regarding the sorting office closing down . Would we be able to do anything to help out by showing support against the closure ? http://www.postalheritage.org.uk/collections/getrecord/GB813_Mem94
  17. I suggested a petition earlier but was told the building is too old to be saved. I think we should do a petition/ write to our MP. Can James Barber get involved ? dhistory Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > Our postie has asked that I post these details > here with the hope that some East Dulwich people > engage and prevent it being destroyed. > > John K > > http://www.postalheritage.org.uk/collections/getre > cord/GB813_Mem94
  18. Last week and this week the people from veolia waste UK were inspecting the bins on my road to ensure we were using our bins correctly . I got a sticker on my bin today thanking me for recycling .
  19. There is always one . Cheers for that . It always happens on this forum. I've asked for this thread to be deleted since it's going through the proper channels.
  20. Nope! Not been in the shop for years . Went once years ago, it wasn't for me . The chap hasn't done anything to me .
