thanks so much, all great ideas .... my mind went a complete blank when she asked me to organise their day!! The pressure as they're high maintenance friends, top lifestyle and only here every few years! Also need to think of somewhere for a group of adults on Sat night - good, original but not over priced (as the rest of us may not be able to afford the top notch!) Thanks again, Kristin

can anyone recommend a child friendly restaurant for Sunday 5th March - Aussie friends want to organise a getogether for mix of friends, different age kids, several families and preferably central London or easily accessible. We'd love to be in a park or have outside space for the kids to play and tasty food. Blue Kangaroo no longer exists, Rainforest Cafe bad food, too dark/expensive/touristy so not sure where else to go. A cafe eg St James Park would be good but not sure if it's possible to reserve tables there or if they do more than sandwiches. Does anyone know? Spacious pub with garden could also be good option. All ideas very welcome as we're a bit stuck!! Thanks a million for your help, Kristin

If you want comfier, more performant shoes and ski boots then I'd really recommend orthotics from Foot Factor.

You're also welcome to call me for some hypnobirthing ... private, group, shorter or longer courses, in Herne Hill, Clapham or your home.

decathlon have a few and if you are very persuasive they may put one aside for you ... it took some sweet talking but hopefully I can pick my 'reserved' sledge up tomorrow. Trouble is need snow to sledge (Brockwell Park fantastic near cafe) but need no snow to pick sledge up by car. Mmmmmmm! Selections, small shop opposite Herne Hill station also had some this week ... Intersport sold out, not getting more.

I'd love to hear from anyone who is home schooling - our son is Year 9 and he goes to an online school, InterHigh, with real teachers and classmates. It's a great alternative to full on home schooling and he hated traditional school so we had to move on from there. We'd love to find others to meet up with locally. Do email me if you're interested. Have you ever considered online schooling? If you'd like to find out more about online school please do contact me. It's solved our school problems and stress. There are some drawbacks but it's great that he's following full KS3 curriculum to take IGCSE's, subject teachers and small classes with lovely students from all over the world (and also fairly nearby!). Best of all he loves it even though school never closes for snow!

how exciting that your baby will be here soon. It's great that you have doulas to contact and I hope you've found someone to support you during your birth. You may have taken birth preparation courses such as HypnoBirthing already but if not, and if you are interested in finding out more then please do contact me through edf or directly by email/phone on [email protected] or 07963 046 456. I run group classes of varying types and also work with mums-to-be /couples on a private basis to suit their requirements and budget. There is also a website, www.hypnobirthingdownloads.com, with wonderful mp3 downloads that are very effective for pregnancy and positive birth - do take the free pregnancy relaxation download on the homepage and, if you aren't considering face to face birth preparation classes then the hypnobirth online mini-course is a great alternative. Do let me know if I can be of any help or answer questions you may have. All the best, Kristin Kristin Hayward HypnoTherapy . HypnoFertility . HypnoBirthing [email protected] 07963 046 456

Lovely to see lots of messages and support for you. Yes, there's no shortage of courses and fantastic midwives in East Dulwich so I'm sure you'll soon feel much more confident! I run Hypnobirthing classes in Clapham for groups and in Herne Hill privately as well as going to people's homes. I'd love to tell you more about the course as the techniques will give you the confidence and trust that you really can have an easy, comfortable birth. It's amazing and really works. There is also a website, www.hypnobirthingdownloads.com, with a great range of tracks to download to prepare for pregnancy and birth. You could take some of these tracks to feel relaxed and positive - there's also tracks for Morning Sickness and Stress Release so hopefully some of these will help you. Do give me a call, I'm running a 1hr Intro to Hypnobirthing in Clapham on 24th Nov, 8pm. My number is 07963 046 456 or email [email protected]. Hope to hear from you, best wishes, Kristin :)

Our son has recently started with InterHigh, an online school which is a fab compromise between the rigidity of traditional school and the total freedom (and responsibility!) of homeschooling. He is Yr 8 and hated mainstream school, but is now confident, interested and enjoying school. He has 8 subjects thro the week, lovely teachers and classmates (class of 15 kids, several living abroad) and it really suits kids who flourish on more freedom and independance and parents who don't want to fully homeschool (would have been disastrous for us). Contact me if you'd like a chat ... I want to tell people about this option as we would have been seriously stuck if we hadn't come across this by chance!

hi ladies, I'm not pregnant so hope you don't mind posting on your thread ... but if any of you are interested in HypnoBirthing or positive birth preparation I'd be delighted to hear from you. I run group classes in Clapham, also private sessions locally and can even come to you, esp if there are a few of you. If you're not so keen on classes you could go to www.positive-birth.com where you'll find lots of downloads (pain relief, quick recovery, stress release, visualise positive birth, easy breastfeeding etc) to make your pregnancy/birth/beyond easier and really positive. There's a free download too. Happy to chat or even pop in if you're meeting for coffee and want questions answered. Kristin Kristin Hayward HypnoTherapy . HypnoFertility .
