looking for a local 'animal man' to come to a birthday party with animals to pet for an 8 year old party. any recommendations appreciated.

Pavel and his team were really great. They were very efficient and kept us calm through the move! Nice guys, safe pairs of hands would definitely use again. Price was favorable too and a lot cheaper than some of the other more well known companies.

We just had my daughters 7th birthday party at captured in the rye. It is a really good alternative party. The girls were totally engrossed in the activity from drawing and cutting out to getting involved with the screen printing and shrieking with delight at their finished t shirts. The spin painting and candy floss also added another dimension of creative fun. Would recommend highly as a memorable birthday activity with a keep sake to go home with!

Suddenly occurred to me that I am a grown up with children and a house and should probably make a will. Can anyone recommend a company that you have had a good experience with, for will making - a rather daunting task and I have no idea of the price to do it! Thanks in advance :)

hello - we had our garden done a year ago and had new turf laid which has never really taken. can anyone recommend a gardener who may have this as a speciality. problem could have been the quality of the turf itself - or the drainage underneath - it always felt very wet even in high summer. we are looking to do this in the Spring and we need someone who really knows what they are doing! please PM Me thank you.

Would recommend Chania in Crete - we stayed in a lovely relaxed placed called Lekfa appartments. pool, restaurant on site, laid back, near a lovely beach (es). we had a 4 year old and a baby and will probably go with them again next year.

Hello all - looking for recommendations from anyone on good family destinations for some pre-winter guaranteed sunshine. We have a baby and a 4 year old so looking for somewhere hassle free e.g. somewhere close to an airport for a DIY holiday or a decent all inclusive. It would be end of October.

Hello can anyone who has had a side return extension and / or loft conversion let me know if you would recommend your builder for obvious reasons: good job, nice people to deal with, cost effective. We are looking to get both a side return and loft conversion done and want to get the ball rolling with quotes. We are in Peckham so looking for any one that covers the area. thanks so much for helping us navigate this minefield ;)
