Iron on ones come off! Anyway, a lovely girl messaged me and she and her Mum sewed on all 83 name tapes in just 2 days! Highly recommended for anyone else looking for name tape help. Thank you! PM me for her details, Ellie

Both my sons have new school uniforms next terms and I really need some help sewing on name tapes. Apparently some dry cleaners do this and charge about ?20 for 50? Any ideas/offers? Thanks Ellie 07973 217621

When I moved house recently, I asked landscape gardener Jasper Davis to build a summerhouse for me and to lay some fake grass in my garden. The gardens in West Dulwich are often very boggy and wet and my lawn looked a mess! Jasper worked hard and very quickly to build this summerhouse and lay the easigrass type astroturf. I was delighted with the results! Some of my friends laughed at me for having plastic grass. However, with such a dry summer I am having the last laugh because everyone else's lawns are brown and dry while mine still looks green and fresh. The astro is lovely to lie on and walk on. It's very easy to maintain - no mowing and just a rake once in a while. It's even coped admirably with dog poo. I can't recommend Jasper highly enough. PM me if you want a personal reference.

I keep hens in East Dulwich and so far those effing foxes have killed 10 of them. No men's hair, man urine or lion dung will keep them away. I have an electric fence now and even then one fox cub walked straight through it and got it's head stuck. The noise was indescribable! If I lived in the country I'd take great pleasure in shooting them.
