Hi all,

I am looking for a recommendation for a carpenter/handyman who can fit wooden flooring. It is quite a large area, and will also include cladding up the stairs. Some of the flooring is parquet and some is regular flooring

Thanks

I would like to really recommend John McCaffery - 07868 102497. He recently did some painting and wall papering for us and it's fantastic. He was very tidy, it took exactly the amount of time he said it would, and very reasonable. And a lovely guy as well!

We have booked him in for more work in the new year.

Jagan's cooking is amazing - this will definitely be a culinary feast!

Thanks

I know there are loads of local parents who work freelance or who run their own small businesses. i am currently in the process of setting up a small company, and am looking for some advice on the legal and financial side. Does anybody know if there is any support or advice centres locally specialising in this field? Thanks

Hello, we have a small flat, but are looking to reorganise the kitchen and living room space, and possibly add on a side extension. This is not a big project and has a very tight budget, but we are looking for recommendations for a local Architect who can give us some ideas on how to make the best use of the limited space, and draw up plans if required. Thanks

Thanks a lot for all the tips...will check out holiday schemes

wow...it seems like a logistical nightmare for all! Will definitely check out the holiday schemes people have recommended. Is there any kind of OFSTED inspection for holiday schemes/reassurance that the people who run them are capable of taking care of so many children?

Thank God for Grandparents...

Hello,

We are all very excited about our daughters staring reception in September, and have just about got childcare sorted for term time. However, having just been given the list of holidays from the school, it throws up whole new problems with what do we do about childcare during the holidays. Are there childminders who are willing to work holidays only? Are there any good summer schools available locally for young children? Any other options? Thanks

Hi all,

I have also been offered a place at Goose Green for reception in September. I would be very keen to hear stories from parents with children already there, or meet up with parents who's children will be starting in September.

Theatre Peckham at Harris academy in Peckham is brilliant - they do music theatre, and ballet, tap etc, and it is very reasonably priced. My 4 yr olds love the music theatre class

Don't know how official twins discount is, but she also recently advertised it in Dulwich and District Twins club news letter
