Gerry! Thank you so much for coming out to see my tenant's flat literally at no notice. Sorted the issue for them and so honest and easy to deal with. I can't say that about many tradespeople these days but Gerry is now my speed dial 1 for plumbing! Thanks so much again.

Very helpful!! Thank you!

Hi all, Does anyone have this combination? I am trying to make it work but I find that the lascal board connectors are getting in the way of the brakes working properly...almost like the fittings are just too wide for the buggy? Does anyone else find this or am I doing something wrong? If anyone can send me pics of how they have attached it that would be great!

Has anyone done this and got any tips? I thought I might give it a go (11 month old girl) for the remaining month of my maternity leave as figured the nursery won't put in as much effort and time as I can... any tips appreciated!

Just thought I'd update this thread - spoke with Jessica Kendrew (JRK) about her paintings and commissioned a really lovely painting which I have just picked up today - we are so pleased with it and Jess was great to deal with and the detail of the painting was very important to her, the work was affordable as well. Hope to see her at the Artists Open House next year!

Thanks!

Does anyone know if there are printed maps this year of which houses are open and where we might be able to find them?

Thanks!

Does anyone know a painter or artist locally who paints the streets of ED or local landmarks? Would love to have one up on my wall.

.

great nappy tips! hadn't thought of that!

This is great! Thanks so much. Sounds like it could be more relaxed than I am anticipating :) Thanks all!

Hi all, I may need to do a long haul 14 hour flight in the new year and wondered if any seasoned travellers out there had any tips to make it as easy and stress free as possible! Baby will be 5 months old and is bf so no need to faff around with bottles. Wondering if I can just use the sling as on the other side I will have family waiting for me so they can give me a buggy there. Also will try and get the bassinet seat on the flight. Thanks in advance!

Hi I don't have any experience of one myself but friends have used one and apparently nearest is in Bromley and there is a waiting list of some sort. They say it's good though.

We also had Finishing Point do our skiring boards. They look fine from a distance but they were stapled to the walls so up close you can see big bumps of metal sticking out! Very odd and never thought a job would be done this way but to be frank I didn't have the energy to complain so never did! Ah well. Thought it's only fair to have a balanced view on here.

I agree with the comments above that Aria was very responsive and came round quickly but boy was he expensive (I didn't have the energy to haggle with a newborn baby hanging off me).

Hello! Checked with all the neighbours and it isn't any of theirs. Abandoned on Barry Road. If you've lost yours somehow (?!) then please let me know. Thanks!

Hi yep the Pro Beauty Clinic on Hindmans Road do it too.

Does anyone have contact details of 'Danielle' at Southwark council who is dealing with this please?

No doubt a large ugly block will be built instead of anything in-keeping with the houses. Shame the council make us all abide by strict consultation rules when wanting to do any planning but they can choose how to apply their own rules when it's their land.

Hi all, Need a painter decorator to come and repaint a wall which has suffered a leak from the upstairs flat. The plaster is raised as has been damaged from the water Anyone know of anyone who can do this work soon as I need the room free of any paint smells for imminent baby arrival. Many thanks all. Please PM me!

With months of temperamental service from Virgin Media (on-demand/catch-up not available, our box packing up and losing all of our recorded TV etc etc) we are definitely ready to pay someone else instead of continuing to give Virgin the handsome sum of ?70 a month! Don't want to lose the great internet connection though. Anyone else have recommendations for a good Internet provider in the area (we are off Barry Road)? Seeing as we can watch catch-up TV online, don't need fancy TV package really. Thanks!

Hi Jim, Iain, maybe slightly late, if so will come and find you on the rye (presume you will be at the peckham rye end of the common).

Missed it again! Please post again when you're doing it and will be there.

Yes keen on fbook idea too!
