Another recommendation from me for Alexander pest removals - this time a rat making a nest in my understairs cupboard. He came out on a Sunday evening and dealt with the problem efficiently and calmly. When I feared I might have the same problem again he came out although it may have been a false alarm he put my mind at rest - and no charge as still within the three month guarantee period. Brilliant. You can get Craig Alexander on 07989 343136.

Hi all Looking for people to film with for ITV Good Morning Britain (tomorrow's show) Energy companies have made it easier for people to claim refunds if they have switched accounts or moved addresses. We are looking for someone who is either fighting for a refund or faced a battle to get a large amount of money back from their energy firm. We may want to film with you today or for you to be live on tomorrow's programme - there will be a fee and we will arrange all transportation. Pls PM for more info

need a phone number if anyone can help? thanks

Hello ITV Good Morning Britain are doing a piece on co-sleeping tomorrow and I'm looking to film with a group of mums this afternoon to discuss this issue along with ITV's Dr Hilary. If you and a group of your mum friends are getting together this afternoon (5 or 6 mums would be great) and could cope with an hour's filming do let me know. Thankyou!

Exact same problem - mould in utility room (where tumble dryer/washing machine are) mould in back bedroom (where I dry clothes) and mould on bathroom tiles (have no window in bathroom but I have had an extractor fan fitted, hasn't done the trick though) My two questions are, do I get a proper big dehumidifier for the whole house or some of those small little box ones I've seen (for each room) And also, once I've done that, can I just paint over the mould (with a mould resistant/special paint) or should I try and remove mould first? thanks so much

Hello All I need to pre-film with a mum on the school run tomorrow morning (for an item that will go on the show on Thursday morning) for an item I'm doing on the perils of getting your kids to school on time in the morning. So, if you regularly have to contend with bad driving, double parking, aggressive behaviour I'd love to talk to you. It would mean we would need to follow your journey from home to school - so need to be with you about half an hour before you leave for school and then once the school run has finished to ask your reaction to it, is it typical etc? We would be able to pay you a ?150 appearance fee for this (you'd obviously need to be be someone who drives your children to school rather than bus/walk etc) Do private message me for more details

hi there I need to film with a mum plus buggy this afternoon around East D and environs, travelling around on the bus to see how easy access is/if there's enough room for your buggy/if you can't get on a bus because no room etc. I need you for about two hours, I can pay ?150. Pls PM me ASAP if you can help. Cheers

Hello all - apparently it's the start of the winter vomiting season so I'm looking to speak someone who is currently struck down with the Norovirus to talk to them live in their home tomorrow morning. Yes, I know, it's a big ask but there is a fee available....PM for more details. Cheers.

i do, but its not a working one....could that be it? not sure if chimney is blocked up or not

hi - since Tuesday this week I've had a lot of fat black flies buzzing around my house (some have a little bit of shiny green on their backs) It is absolutely disgusting. Am killing around 15 per evening (they are mostly around in the evenings when I turn my lights on?) Have invested in fly spray and fly paper and it's working fine in that it's killing them but I want to know where the source - I know everyone is going to say there's something rotting, a dead carcass somewhere but there's no smell in my house/have looked everywhere for rotting mouse/rat, whatever. Could there be something rotting outside, the flies are hatching there then entering my house? How do they get in? No windows are open. I have to say the numbers are decreasing but they are still THERE. Any help/advice v much appreciated. Actually I think they're coming in near my front window actually and I noticed that when I turned my heating off they seemed to decrease. thanks

To attach a roller blind and 'unstick' a jammed (tall) pull out kitchen cupboard. Thanks

I've been using Advocate on my cat for the last four months and have used the expensive vet prescribed spray all around the house that's supposed to last for 12 months. We're not getting bitten anymore and cat seems fine....but I can still see what I think is flea 'dirt' dropping off my cat (those black specks). Does this mean she still has fleas (although there's no evidence of them anywhere else)??? Driving me crazy!

Sorry Pokertime - it's not just about youtube it's a tutorial on how to set up the controls - thankyou, thankyou!

Thanks poker time will do that for YouTube - anyone any advice on getting filters set on searches made on google chrome?

Hello I thought I'd sorted this but my daughter has been accessing inappropriate content on her Nexus tablet - she has google chrome on it and has been accessing inappropriate websites on searches through this as well as inappropriate stuff on you tube. I know there is stuff I can put in her google chrome to filter stuff/you tube stuff but I've sat here for an hour and cannot work out how to do it. If anyone can help and give me a step by step idiots guide on how to do this I'd be so grateful. I feel physically sick at some of the things she's seen. She's been looking at stuff secretly after I've put her to bed. Needless to say her tablet is confiscated until this is sorted. Thanks so much

Hello All I'm on the lookout for a family to film with this afternoon - can anyone help? New research suggests that the average UK child has ten times as many toys as they need and that they only actually play with 10% of them. Good Morning Britain is looking to film with mums and dads who admit that their child/children have too many toys - but that they still feel under pressure to spend when it comes to birthdays. We'd need to do about an hours filming with you this afternoon or evening (at a time convenient to you) and then do a live interview with you tomorrow morning from your home(about two minutes) There would be fee of ?200 for this. Pls PM for more details.

Sorry to be girly but am terrified of mice! Does anyone know someone who'd come out in the morning? thankyou

Thanks all for the answers so far - I guess my biggest fear is not that they won't give me the extra ?10k - it's that they might take my existing mortgage off me when they know about my reduced income. Even though am paying regularly with no problems at all and have a low loan to value. Guess i should just ask a mortgage adviser. Cheers all

Hi all just wondering if anyone can answer my query? I have been with the same mortgage provider for about five years now and I want to take some extra money out for home improvements (I have a lot of equity so a low LTV, which is great, know I'm lucky!) The only problem is that when I initially took out the mortgage my income was higher than it is now and allowed me to get the level of mortgage I needed. However now my income is lower so that if I applied for a new mortgage now I probably wouldn't get it (I've just moved products over the years and they've never asked me any questions about my income) Anyway, my question is that, in order to borrow the extra on my mortgage (about ?10k) I'm assuming that they will have to do all the income checks on me - now I know this might mean they refuse to give me a further advance but could it also mean, now that my circumstances have changed, that they can take my mortgage off me? Or once you're in a product and paying it with no problems (I've had a mortgage for 16 years and have never even made a late payment)they wouldn't do that? Not knowing the answer to this (if indeed there is a uniform answer) means I'm too scared to call them about a possible advance. Any advice greatly appreciated. thanks

The same thing has happened to me over the last few years - I.e someone giving me a lovely smile or tried to make small talk, but I've just clammed up or looked away. So stupid and I berate myself afterwards, but it's embarrassment I guess....

Hi all I'm looking to do some pre-filming with a child that starts school on Thursday, 4th Sept for Good Morning Britain on ITV. We want to do a 'from a child's viewpoint' piece so we would need to put a little 'go pro' camera on the child so we can see them go through the school gates for the first time, see their classroom for the first time etc, etc. There would be a fee for this and probably quite fun for the child - pls PM me for more info. The piece would then be aired on Fri morning. Many thanks

Hello all I just wanted to post a recommendation on here for kids pamper parties at Mother's Inc on Forest Hill Road. My daughter had her heart set on one for her eighth birthday and Ehi(the owner) and her team did not disappoint. When my daughter arrived at the salon it was decked out beautifully (and very suitably for an eight year old) and she was given a sash saying 'Lily's pamper party' and a little crown which she loved...then the fun began. They all took turns in giving each other 'facials' (just some yoghurt, honey and oats so they could have eaten it afterwards!) then onto some games (created and supervised by Ehi) variations on some old favourites which they adored (cue lots of giggling and screaming) then off to get their nails painted, which again they loved. It was two hours but it flew by and every single little girl had a truly fabulous time. There's nothing too 'grown up' about the parties Ehi puts on (I got some flack on the forum when I first enquired about the idea) nor does it 'send a message' about what little girls 'should' aspire to'...it was just such great fun from start to finish and really well organised. I had the most relaxing time too as I didn't have to do anything, I could just sit back and watch my daughter and her friends have lots of fun. It is reasonably priced too - she caters for little boys too if you don't want a single sex party for your child. I honestly could not recommend it highly enough. Here's the details: Mothers Inc, 124 Forest Hill Road, SE22 ORS - 0208 693 4033

I know I've probably been really dumb but I parked in the loading bay just down the side of cafe Nero on Friday for 13 mins. The notice says it's a loading bay, 30 mins (or 40?) no return within two hours. I was going to get a piece of heavy furniture from Oliver bonas but ended up not getting it. I genuinely thought it was ok to park in those bays for the allotted time period - I'm guessing an appeal would be pointless? Any advice much appreciated.
