Hi Eliza, the amount of homework does leap dramatically once they start secondary but perhaps it varies from school to school exactly how much. It can be a bit of a shock. The key is organisation- work out what has to be in when and don't try to do it all at once or leave it till the last moment. My daughter (now year 8) had no problems last year as she is good at organising herself and just gets on with it. It doesnt seem to have got worse. I think the beginning is worse because we are not used to it. But My son started year 7 last week and needs lots of help keeping on top of this. He already has four assignments and we've done one. I am keeping a chart of what has come in and when it needs to go back. When he comes home he has a drink, something to eat and maybe a little relax (but not telly- as he would then go into another 'zone')- then we do it, maybe only fifteen minutes/twenty, then he can relax again. On a positive note he is actually taking homework more seriously than at primary-(though still trying to do as little as he can get away with) Hope this helps!

eh Peckham Gatecrasher I think you misinterpreted the tone of my post. I was just trying to help the OP who seemed to think St B was the main ED church . a lot of the correspondence on here re church is related to St Johns which is the parish church of East Dulwich whereas St Barnabus tends to serve Dulwich Village and I do think you are really rude.

SianandTony I think most East Dulwich C of E churchgoers go to St Johns Goose Green which is a lovely church.

I think Barry and his team are good. Its the system that sometimes seems mad.

Casualty everytime Plimsoul! Better value in terms of the proportion of medical staff wrongly accused of murder (five I think)who then die or are imprisoned unjustly, several psychos/stalkers who are killed but manage to accidentally fatally shoot popular member of staff (trying to escape typecast)in the process and of course any long drawn out love will-they-won't they drama resolved in one of the couple dying dramatically and unusually as soon as they have 'got it on' together. People leave Casualty to seek big telly stardom, but some return wounded from the frey....have you noticed in the reruns of The Forsythe Saga that Bettany's fiance was played by none other than Jessica, the love triangle nurse (how many episodes before she or Adam are slaughtered tragically as soon there is a prospect of love running smoothly?) Also as an actor you can die in one episode and come back as a doctor in another, working your way up via playing a porter.

If people have to queue for a long time to buy a ticket and miss trains as a result it is not supportive of honest passengers (who are punished with lateness for actually trying to buy a ticket) and just encourages dishonest passengers. Cynics might even be tempted to think that not making it easy to buy a ticket but making it easy to be caught if you don't is a revenue enhancing technique.

thanks. My mind is at rest.

Am a secret shameful Casualty addict, thoUGHT i'D taped last episode of summer while on hols, but no, turned plug off. A brief synopsis would be very welcome. Did the consultant bloke with the brain tumour die? Was the love triangle of that other doctor bloke and nurse woman and child kidnapping doctor husband resolved or did they all get exploded by the animal rights brigade as is a common casualty loose ends tidier.? I know you would prefer to PM me rather than expose your own piccadilloes so I'll just wait here on this cyber corner for 'my man'. thanks.

peckham rye b.r. today at lunchtime, four staff on electronic gates to catch evaders plus two staff at stop of stairs ditto, yet one bloke in ticket boothe enabling people to actually legally purchase a ticket.

EDenders?

The Asylum, Asylum Road. A 1960's timewarp.

he's just phoned- the train behind has given them a shunt, they are free! Just when they were on the verge of having to eat eachother after two hours without any cheesy whatsits.

If he's in the pub he is ventriloquising excellent background meaningless announcement noises....so I think he's stuck alright and we are flying to Sardinia tommorow!

My husband has been stuck on a broken down train just outside Peckham Rye Station for about an hour and a half with little or no information with trains banked up behind them all the way back to London Bridge. If your partner is missing, that may well be where he/she is.

have you asked police lost property...you never know!

Hi Helen, do you do rush work? Ive got a william Birch arts and crafts carver that needs re-rushing?

snoozequeen we drowned them, harsh but fair.

our mice seem to have gone. We put down poison(one lot) and sticky traps (caught two)but also plugged in siren things in every mouse-attractive room. We havent seen any since june and this is in a house where they had got to the stage where they were sauntering around without a care in the world in front of our very eyes- so whichever of the devices has worked has worked.

Brewski- could it be the same people?

this happened to me today. I parked near Peckham rye park, edging into a space, my bumper touched the car's bumper behind- not tapped it but touched it-i had perfect clutch control. A man suddenly appeared demanding my insurance details and pointed at his bumper saying I had bent it. Well I had not. And there was no mark on my bumper. Anything on his- which I could hardly detect- were old dirty marks. He pointed at a house and said there was a witness. Low and behold a man looking out. I stood my ground and said I was happy for my insurance company to inspect the cars. He then said it didnt matter and would let it go. Nevertheless, it worried me, I returned to the car, photographed both bumpers on my phone - unfortunately did not take his reg as he was watching from window and didnt want to exacerbate situation-and am contacting my insurance company in the morning. Either he was winding me up, was after some cash or trying to get his car done up on my expense. It was a sports car. This has happened to me before when I got a letter from the police saying i had written someone's car off at a roundabout. The police inspected my car and no damage or paint residue found. As I had been in the place reported at the time I reckon another scam or even taking my reg down instead of the perpitrator. My innocence was supported by the evidence. Inform your insurance company, invite inspection (there will be paint on your car if you were involved)and tell them you are speaking to a solicitor. A scammer will withdraw quickly. A genuine mistake will be sorted out.

I hear Mohammed al fayed is interested in relocating Harrods there.
